Meet some of the homing pigeons in Kastle Loft that are the basis for our breeding and race team. Click on a photo to see a pedigree if one is available. 2013 brings a seismic shift in our breeding program that will impact us for years to come. We have introduced ten new birds from the M & D Evans Vandenabeeles. Among them is a direct son of the world-famous Eisenhower, the #1 breeder for Myrtle Lofts of England. We will be breeding from multiple line bred grandchildren of Shadow and all of our birds will be influenced by the great Wittenbuik. Other greats in our birds will be Rolls Royce, Jester & Carrie, Benetton, Saffron, Devon, Nationaal Fideel & Belle, and The Perfect Pair.
Check back soon for updated photos of our other new additions of M & D Evans’ stock including a triple grandson of Shadow and two grandsons of Benetton, Lady Eisen and Rolls Royce.
Einstein 2012 GB C 39756: Direct from world-famous #1 breeder Eisenhower and Joint Venture of M&D Evans’s Myrtle Lofts. He is a full brother to 3rd place 2011 SCMDPR for Myrtle Lofts. Grandchild of Champion Shadow. 2012 was the last year that Myrtle Lofts sold any children off Eisenhower to the public. In Einstein’s first year breeding he bred an AU Ace Bird, race winners, diplomas, eq. 1sts with two different lofts and as many as 500 birds.AU 10 Baker & Sons 123 is a Janssen cockbird with Ultimate Miracle/Blue Miracle and Champion 969 throughout his family. He was a standout pigeon in the 2010 LRPC One-Loft Futurity, winning 1st in the 100-mile by 2 minutes and 2nd (Eq 1st) by 12 minutes in the 150-mile on a terrible windy overcast and rainy day. He bred diploma winners at the shorter distances in 2012 with his Kannibaal hen.AU 09 PROTEGE 116 is a Kannibaal line-bred cock from Kenny Rhodes at Protege Loft. He is a gorgeous bird out of Kannibaal’s Gold and Michelle. He has Kannibaal in his pedigree four times, Golden Lady three times, and Kleine Dirk two times. In 2012, when paired to a line-bred Black Widow/Aviator hen, he produced a top 10% money winner in the Gulf Coast Classic. He also bred a 1st place club winner at 150 miles.AU 11 Timber Creek Lofts 9. This beautiful cock was lost in a race and found by a concerned resident here in Lexington. Greg Dick of Timber Creek Lofts was generous enough to let me “borrow” him for my breeding program. He was in his fifth young bird race when he inexplicably stopped in the middle of a 250-miler. He was in perfect condition and is a beautifully feathered and balanced bird. He is inbred Champion 969 (Cyclone/Twister) on the top and inbred Hollywood (Hollywood’s Boy) on the dams side. Greg has some fantastic birds and I consider myself lucky to have gotten the phone call about this lost one. In 2012, he bred me some diplomas winners at the shorter distances.
