We are not a collector of pedigrees,
but try to incorporate only the best into our own personal racing pedigrees.
Our race course is as tough as they get and in fact in 2025 most of our club members had losses in excess of 75%, some lofts entered the 300 with only 6-8 birds left to race ... Here at Red Cape WIngs we ended the season with a YB team of almost 50 birds, with minimal losses after a full season of races.
Our success here is a matter of record; 2024 we won LOFT of the YEAR award (CMP)
We also have a secondary loft apart from our main breeding loft to accommodate our select "color race birds that really race".... currently Tiger Grizzle, Yellow (ash red dilute), Classic Grizzle, Black, Slate /Smokey, Indigo (Chocolate), Recessive Opal and Reduced. We are strict with our culling process, even more so with our color birds.
My "color" birds;
Young Bird kits. Something I have never done in the past, however for 2026, I will offer a very limited number. Some kits have already been reserved and keep in mind I do not normally raise birds simply for sale, my breeding loft numbers are small.
I will offer young birds in Kits of 2 or 4 YBs... if you desire more than 4 please email me for availability
At 77 years old I am not in it for money but simply to try to further the hobby
Pricing: $90 ea for 2, $75 ea for 4 plus box and shipping. These prices are for my Colored racers, full siblings to the birds I will race, all pedigreed. Tiger Grizzles, Classic Grizzles, Yellow cks and bars, Indigo / Chocolate, Recessive Opal, Reduced and Blacks
You can mix and match colors for your order (if available)
