Some cracking pigeons there Neil. Very nice eye signs too.

I would just dispute the fact that he has said they are 100% Busscheart as they haven’t come out of the lofts of George Busscheart. But still impressive pigeons all the same.

To my mind if they carry the bloodlines of only George Busschaert then they can accurately be described as 100% Busschaert

I think that if bred from originals and nothing crossed in by people of the time

He has some other pigeons where he has crossed the original busschaert but normally states if crossed or not

He's a boster

I had a granddaughter bred me 2 winners in 4 nest I lost her when the pikeys broke into the loft
I was gutted but then with the interest more in upto 200 miles I never added any off Jimmy as although they won short ones he particularly was very decent at the 300 plus I think that become his interest more

Let's be fair, "technically" nothing is 100%

Busschaert, Janssen they weren't invented out of thin air - everything has a mother and a father
