good looking birds and great results to match thats 45 year ago wonder if them old birds of that time could still compete against todays distance familys
is any one flying them and winning with them now as they might be a good cross
great memourys to keep

am happy with them time is a great thing .
my self very happy with my crosses and pure time will tell and i have only just got in to my 4th year of racing yes still winning goerge was first second and third from belguim in 2001 and bob was first just before he packed up three years ago with last chance

maybe they will say on the scottish nat web site was there any write ups in the bhw

am sure someone would know as the ritchie/whyte distance pigeon is none all over the world .
am sure some of the doo men would be able to tell you more if you need anymore info .
anyone in the scottish north east section would be able to tell you more .
cant tell you anymore until i speak to bob he will know if there was any right up etc the main thing is that the birds have prooved there selfs for over 50 odd years .

yes john, i agree with darren, a fine family of birds you have their.........in my opinion you dont need any crosses injected into these as they are still winning today after 45 years..............

you must be very proud of the bloodlines your uncle left you.........good luck for 2011.

thanks david your right sir every time i do cross they get back crossed in to the ritchie and whyte blood so they have at least 3 quarter ritchie and whyte and a quarter of other strain

yes thats a good way of preserving the bloodline, plus it also injects just a bit of new blood which will enable you to compare the difference of a cross without spoiling the original family.

yes your spot on david our first bird home last week was a first cross got third club with the cock he was 11th open at same race last year so will keep my eye on him this week just got open result david he was 18th open this year with 2480 odd pigeons so very happy

yes, these could be a valuable injection of blood john....plus it keeps the mix under control doesnt it......

yes thats right david you got to try diverant crosses some will work others you just loose any way so you just dont cross them again and get rid then try something ealse as long as i have 9 pair in the stock loft the r/w will allways take first place for my strain .was very very lucky david to be gifted some from bob and geting goerges stock birds back from him when i started

yes i remember, he was a reference bird in the sale wasnt he..................even tho he was knocking on a bit i`ll bet he would have still made a nice sum if he had been put in the sale.......

thats right david he was .
am really glad he didnt go to sell now as the old fellow gifted me with 6 cocks and two hens .
yes david the birds in the sell all came from the same close net family .
just that the old fellow was the last gg grand son left from uncles stock so bob really wanted him in but the man gave him back to me plus a full son that also came from uncles plus two of uncles hens and 2 from bob and we bought two hens from him before he made up his sell sheet so he was very good to us and hes really glad were doing well with them and sound advice dont push them and they will come throu for you one day. so thats what were doing taking our time.

remember reading about stormqueen,stick with them and im sure they will do well for you mate.

all the best for 2011.
