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 new hens.
This is a line-bred Kannibaal daughter of Waddy. I paired her with a line-bred Janssen cock in 2011 and they produced my best young birds that year, including a 1st at 280 miles. In 2012, she was bred to another Janssen cock and produced a diploma winner at 100-miles vs. 178 birds.
This is Widow’s 20, my double grand daughter of Black Widow and Aviator from Timber Creek Lofts. She is a beautiful, streamlined bird who, when crossed with my son of Kannibaal’s Gold in 2012, produced my biggest win of the year: A top 10% money winner in the Gulf Coast Classic. Flying in old birds, Kastle 11 finished at impressive 2nd place for handler Jim Combs in a 150-mile race 1084 birds.
