m & D Evans auction anyone watching it

this is it g mate but i do think that that will be a turning point in the sport, stack it high sell it cheap. Ive heard some lofts over there are like a stud on there own with the birds in it so its just a matter of time i think

i see the uk bidder finally won the bird, 6,600 for a 201 pigeon..............must have liquid gold running through its viens.


lets see if we can see what the winning bidder does racing next season, look out for the name.

i was thinking about bidding,but i have far too many to bring anymore in,but you never know watch this space

nah ray, you dont want them...........6,600 for pie filling ?

Lot 2 sold

24th Bid: £2,400.00 - Alan Burton. Northumberland. U.K. 22:14
china & USA being out bid

think these people must have more money than sense...........

people want these pigeons so much i was up mark evans & dickies houes a few weeks ago as i bought 12 from them but i only bought young birds to race at 50 pounds each they are nice couple of blokes i was there most of the day handling all the great pigeons they have a good day out with nice people look forward to meeting up with them again

Two more on the auction tonight one finishes at six and one at eight intresting to see what they go for LOt 3 SOLD - Final Bid: £1,300.00 - Jerry O'Grady. Southern Ireland

i know these m and d evans seem to do plenty of winning for fanciers, but i cant see how this years ybs and yearlings are making thousannds of pounds, after all what could the yearlings have bred ? and as they dont race pigeons themselves now they cant have won anything racing..............

madness........

hahahaha your dead rite david

your right David they dont race anymore but they are still breeding winners for natinals and other big races
people are going a bit mad on this auction beying yearlings for that kind of money after all you cant breed winner every nest nor pigeons to breed winner i went there just to purchase 12 young birds to race as im just starting up again and at 50 pounds each i think was a good deal as they are gran children of the main birds
you have to bey good pigeons to start with other wise you wont win
LOT 4 SOLD - Final Bid: £2,700.00 - Eric Godelieve. Belgium

yes eves i agree, yearlings and ybs for this price is total maddness...........

on the other hand, you buying ybs to race is good, they are bred of good blood and it gives you a chance to race them for reasonable outlay......

its just a name thats fetching that sort of money as theyve got a bit of a legacy breeding national winners, but once the chinese start bidding against you it turns into a bidding war

your right alex use what we have here and the l/dhanehne you got will see you the right way

hope they do well for me, seem to be a breed that does well but underated...joining the mids nat so want to breed a mids national winner next season lol

LOT 4 SOLD - Final Bid: £2,700.00 - Eric Godelieve. Belgium
thats a lot of money for for birds but the breedings behind them id like a stock loft full of these as long as they breed winner other wise in to the bin they go dont care how well breed they are no good for me no good foe anyone else

its all a gamble eves, no one can say for certain if a bird will breed winners....even if it does have a magnificent pedigree. winners dont always breed winners.

dont i no it iv bought some of the best in my early days and no good atalll this time im going to bey only young birds from some of the best to save time i think as the basket sorts them out

yes your right eves, and to be fair i think you should get some decent ybs from m and d.......
our member lightening won the national with a bird bred from their bloodlines.

shame he dont tell the truth don
