And that is what the topic is now about, some will pay for birds and some won't. But that is the choice of all, when breeding if i wanted to buy a bird. I hoped i could strike a deal.

Great feedback Trev, i have always said. We have a choice in what we do , if we want to sell a bird or buy a bird, we have a price in mind. Then it's down to our choice, to sell or buy. And once again we all have different views, on any topic, that is what makes a forum a very good one. Somewhere you can have your point of view, then reply to feedback.Trev wrote: ↑Sun May 19, 2024 7:41 am Personally regardless of how much some may or may not pay, which is obviously up to each individual, as there are obviously plenty of fanciers who are prepared to pay big money for pigeons. In my opinion, when you have impressive pedigrees like this you can easily get blinded as to the actual quality of the pigeon you are buying. I personally don't like this particular bird at all, it just doesn't look like it will live up to its pedigree !!
Just my opinion though, and as I've said on many occasions, I don't profess to be a champion pigeon fancier![]()

If that bird was in a local sale I wouldn’t look twice at to be honest i would kill it if I bred it I can’t stand that tailTrev wrote: ↑Sun May 19, 2024 7:41 am Personally regardless of how much some may or may not pay, which is obviously up to each individual, as there are obviously plenty of fanciers who are prepared to pay big money for pigeons.
