hi i keep racers, had them afew yrs now mainly distance strains.

 

my dads old family cattryese based ,a few bricoux,titmus and some spangles too

Hi

I would be very interested to here about the titmuss pigeons you have I bought one pair from peter in 1992 and in first season bred a pigeon I called little miss titmuss this hen won me over £3,500 and two RPRA awards in 1995 I had many of my stock stolen along with the orignals I had then I was gifted from peter the fifty pound cock which is name stuck as when he was a squeaker george burguss who was a pau national winner offerd peter fifty quid which for anyone who knows george was a fortune but peter never sold and he wenton to win both north and south and like ever thing in life he did not last long but have been good pigeons to me but pigeons have had to take second fiddle to my terriers and spaniel still love the pigeons but when I wake up it is not about getting basket out and down the road it is where is me and the dogs going today .

I would say that my life was took up 24/7 with racing pigeons and have had a little success in the sport but if I never win another race have many memeriors but the hunting or should I say getting out into the country after being in a factory for over thirty years and then having had two total knee replacements and the freedom it gives and the pleasure seeing a dog work but this game it is not about price you pay but the more they do the better they become and if I can ever give a little advice without sounding big headed about the pigeons I will always take advice on the dogs as I am only learning the art but am getting cold, wet, and looking many times dont find but when I do it is all worth it but I am loving ever bit .

Happy hunting and if there are a few pigeons lads on the site good look for 2009.

hi the titmus pigeons came to me via mr/mrs r morris who fly in my club great missenden,this partnership won 4th open palamos this season also two other members have won 1st open san sebastian in recent yrs with the bbc, all these members are very honest and open about there methods, and mr/mrs morris bred me 10 youngsters this year, how much would these gift pigeons cost if brought, this shows the measure of this man, and hopefully he will soon be rewarded with first open

my mike young spangles also came from this guy and i have a few k hine based birds too,looking forward to next season although it will take a few seasons to build a team, i would also like to get a pair from dave goddard as he is very consistant from the distance and is not to far from me.

 

 

wishing all you pigeon lads a good season
