| We race basically our own family of birds which are predominantly Gaby Vandenabeele/Timmer Janssen and a few select others blended since about 2003.
They have won well for us every year.
Highlights this year down here with old birds 1234 club Littlehampton, 1st section 22nd open NFC Saintes, 1st section 3rd open BICC OH) and youngsters winning the first four races on the trot (taking the first four twice) |

Are these Lefebre Dhaennens?
If so we had these in the late 80's early 90's and they were a fantastic team of birds obtained from Herd/Kenyon and Terry Rainbow, a superb family of middle distance birds around the lines of ragamuffin, victrix & geisha
couldnt fault them, tried to bring some back in a few years ago but could only find louella with them so that was that |
