6274-TRUNNELL-IF-2016 DkCC
NOTE: This is a TERRIBLE picture of him! He’s a handsome cock in the loft – he was simply, ‘Ready To Go!’ in the photo box.
6274 is a special situation you must appreciate for your breeding pen. I send a number of small teams of YB’s out for testing. 6274 was part of the surviving 4 of 12 that went to a first-time flyer. He settled them nicely by September of 2016 and trained them to 35 miles a couple of times, then was out of state until March of 2017 when he released the 11 remaining at that time from 35 miles, an hour before dark, with an ice storm imminent. 6274 is one of only 4 to come back – and he came alone Day 3. Character and intelligence! Perfect 6274 is a terrific blend of two of the greatest Vandenabeele Bloodlines in the world today. SIRE of 6274: Perfect 2438, direct son of The Perfect Cock when mated to, the 793 Hen, Super Breeder dam also of both, The Pyramid Cock. DAM of 6274: Durham Dazzler’s Daughter, direct Evans import, bred from Durham Dazzler, winner of 1st National Alencon 6,590 birds, 5th National Falaise 3,278 birds, the R.P.R.A. Award, and the Hormoform Bird of the Year in 2014 - having raced only 3X’s!! Durham Dazzler’s Daughter carries the blood of, “Tjoedje, one of the greatest Vandenabeele hens in the world” – also on the dam’s side of last year’s Million Dollar Race Winner. …and to further assure you Perfect 6274’s homing and character are not a fluke, note that I only bred 2 latehatches from his parents, Perfect 2438 X Durham Dazzler’s Daughter, and his full sister/nestmate went through my “Boot Camp for Latehatches”, homing in a heavy downpour, among other things.
