A cock I purchased at Eric Higginbottom's clearance sale. His sire is a half brother to All Alone and his dam is a full sister to All Alone. I spoke with Eric before the sale who informed me he believed the sister who he named Sister All Alone was a better pigeon at racing than All Alone herself. But hawk injury put a stop to that. All Alone was 3rd open TARBES 694 MILES about 160 miles further than the two that beat it. It was a red hot scorching day so All Alone was a fantastic bird to keep go...

I purchased this cock at Alwyn Hills clearance sale. I have only taken a handful of ybs off him where I have given 3 away. I am Michael John Burden who has been interested in 680 miles the most but will try to compete at the shorter races too. I have only been interested in pigeons that can fly Barcelona uninterested in middle distance to short type racing birds. I was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago and gave most of my main stock birds to a ‘good’ friend in Bakewell. I thought I was ...

He flew nearly 13 hours on th...

I purchased this bird from the entire clearance sales of Alwyn Hill who purchased only the very very best of distance birds.

I have another grand daughter in that OLR this year and she is flying very well. The famous bird The Golden Barcelona is responsible for numerous national winners or high position winners. I timed a yearling cock o...

I have only been interested in pigeons that can fly Barcelona uninterested in middle distance to short type racing birds. I was diagnosed with cancer a ...

A great cock who I really like but is wasted here. I have taken maybe 4 ybs per year off him given some away but kept children. His genes run through my team of birds.
