Bunch of piker types here it appears Did notice a certain B****e thou, had somehow placed an unsuccessful bid there .

The  one purchasing the bird will easily recover the money, stick it in the stock loft and sell all the young, quoting others achievements with similar bred birds.

You can bet there are better pigeons in the BHW and elsewhere at £20 or less.

What beats me is that any sensible fancier knows that 99% of ALL pigeons bred, irrespective of background are rubbish, only you do not hear about them.

Regards.

yes your right misty, most pigeons are crap ..........

Maybe so as you say, but come auction time etc David flyers still mostly like living the dream I suggest     when parting with their hard earned money .

Thing  is David you are better buying a kit of well bred young at £20 each, than one pigeon at  20 or30  times that.

The chances are you will end up with one or two good ones.

Regards.

Maybe if your lucky etc Misty Highly debatable what the pigeon in question is worth I suggest. But then what would/could it be making if on the Pipa auction site, where money at times is thrown away in madness like confetti .
