Here are some of my 2009 young birds. I am not very happy with them this year. They are less in quality than previous years.

These are not good photos & the birds are heavy in the moult.

By the way your front cover is a photo of my Old Black Cock.

Ce ne sont pas de bonnes photos et les oiseaux sont lourds dans la mue.

Par la façon dont votre photo de couverture est une photo de mon vieux coq noir

Hi gnads,
I like the look of your Spread Ash Pied Cock
I also like the young red hen and the blue Checker Hen.
Would like to see them when they are through the moult.
That Black cock of your's is a "STUNNER"
Best of luck.Cheers Bill.(Cloughside Lofts)

Bill the Old Black Cock doesn't look as good as that anymore.
He's a lot rougher around the wattles now but he was a pigeon that remained showable for longer than most cocks I have had.

He's a 2003 bred bird & I showed him last in 2008 where he won a best Old Cock Stock bird.

Hi gands,
I like the look of them all.
They all seem to have that (Power in the Head and Good Beak setting).
I've seen a lot of bird’s on the forum that are to weak in the head and
incorrect beak setting. (But that’s just my opinion for what it’s worth).
Well done and good luck with your breeding for this year.
Cheers Bill.

Hi Neil, my pick are your pieds, they are very nice for me. But I must say, I have a problem with the station with some of your racers and also the beaks are ok but not stronger as many birds in Germany. The first white is a very nice and strong cock but the beak is the worst from all, he is to long and weak for this bird. That`s what I can see on these photos. Dirk

Hi Dirk.
I think you are right.
The bird's in Germany seem a lot better in station and power.
Cheers Bill.

Hello Gnads,

Special thanks from France to share your photos with us !


I love this black female. Wonderful power in head !



I like also the red ash spread. I think it's a very good breed stock cock. Congratulations !

Perhaps Dirk is right. On all your photos, the station is not perfect at 45°. I think the paparrazzi is bad....

Just one question.

Your pied are perfect in color. What is your secret to make them ?

The Pied's are what is known as "Pattern Pieds"

I started with one Black Pattern Pied Hen & they all came from her.
