I do look George but have no idea what I'm looking for

If i could start up again to keep racing pigeons, i would buy every bird in this sale from the lines of 003. A great breeding line quality at its best.

I only really look at the wing to see how the moult is going.

i look now at first 4 flights bit more like to see a little space between them and first one is not shorter under the wing at one time i did like the space were wing joins the body to be tight and the knuckle to be flat not so much now as looking for sprint to middle distance birds one other thing i read but can't find it under the wing again were it joins the body are 3 feathers best if top of these is straight rather than round do any of this make sense lol

I thought that a flat end on those feathers was a sign of distance and the sharper ended flights were sprinters George.

have you ever seen the 3 feathers flat Andy i read just for breeding did not say any thing about distance

Not something I’ve particularly looked at George.
