1 BREEDING STUD 2018 Please scroll down for pairings The birds in the stud are from: Spanish Diploma winners when mated to Spanish Diploma winners Spanish Diploma winners mated to long distance national winners and distance national winners mated to distance national winners Plus sons and daughters of the above have been paired to long distance champions to produce what must be one of the finest families of long distance pigeons ever assembled in the British Isles, if not the world. The pairings of the above truly long distance champion pigeons have been taking place over the past couple of years to form a long distance breeding stud to house children of up to date winning lines. This will hopefully produce many future long distance champions for fanciers intending to compete successfully in long distance pigeon races, especially for fanciers racing as members of The British Barcelona Club, or to improve the present breeding stock of fanciers who have already been successful at distance racing. The above mentioned long distance champions have been mated with the full co-operation and wonderful generosity of their owners. True sportsmen every one and all members of the BBC, so that many others, as well as themselves, will reap the benefits of such a stud and thereby secure and enhance the future of long distance pigeon racing in this country for many years to come. Birds are priced at 100 each and sold strictly on a first come, first served, basis. Only a select number are bred to order each year. Contact the Stud Manager (Nigel Rigiani) on
