Any members have new birds to try ?
Or young birds ordered to race

I have 5 new ones and 4 more purchased jointly with my pal that will stay at his loft in the north west a line Mike told me to go for 2 years ago
I also have 8 babies from a loft Mike recommended to me to try , last year the batch he found me from his pal Les for free :D produced a fed winner so I would be daft not to go again with his choice

What have we all decided to try out ?
I think mine are decent and cheap really but time will tell

Gone with sprint based pigeons for inland racing this coming season .
VDBulcks, Central Loft's, T&L Painter, R & M Wade that I got from Richard last year, but didn't get raced so will push these this season coming.

I'm pretty confident Neil

For about the cost of abag of corn each you'll be playing about with 8 x G.Children of one of the best breeding hens in the UK

Genuine Pigeons + Excellent Fancier = Dangerous Competitor

Good move
Painter and Wade brothers are top winning lofts

Well you've a G.Daughter of this breeding hen at Stock already and she's bred what? 4 or 5 x 1st Federation winners?

Hence if someone wants to give me 8/1 that there won't be a winner in this kit of 8 then I'll have a sizeable wager on that

Good luck with them all lads.
I have a new pair for the stock loft from my good friend Jim of the McSween and Sexton partnership from Sunderland. Jim finished with the birds last year and Dave packed up just recently.
These guys were prominent flyers in the Up North Combine and were constantly winning with ybs over 400miles in the NFC in the Sportsmans Club.
Wondering if anyone on here knows them?

My knowledge of fanciers in the UNC outside of about a dozen or so is a bit ropey I'm afraid
