All that conversation explains a lot.
But.
This afternoon I lifted a young hen off a single youngster she had hatched. It was early bred and planned for an OLR.
I realized it has a 1% chance of living 12 months.
So it's not going.
Greetings from the land down under. :D

I was hoping to have a chat about OLR over there Murray, when i visit you. Is there any update on the Kings cup race.

We are looking forward to you coming to see us, Devo. We are planning some trips and visits with some top breeders.

There should be strict licensing with yearly reviews and warning put in place
Leading to the licence being cancelled if improvement’s are not in place

Yes Neil i agree with you, but that must be for racing overall. The welfare of the birds is Paramount.
