9272-’19 BBC – STRONG Blood: Pre Olympic + Golden Gaby + Perfect Cock + Tadlock 10K Hen
..and! a, Boot Camp Topper…
SIRE: Pre Olympic 8158, DunCC – a direct son of the #1 cock, Pre Olympic 128 x Golden Davin. 8158 has wonderful muscle, and this, his first year breeding, impressed me – I expect he will continue to be a top breeder.
DAM: Tenacity 7131 – from the Perfect Cock mated back to one of his most impactful gr’daus, Tenacity 142 – one of the key genetic packages behind PNC Loft’s great, Blue Noise Pair.
I was just reflecting on the short pedigree of, 9272-TRUNNELL-IF-2019 BBC. And he does have 4 of the strongest bloods in my loft:
Pre Olympic: “Best Dutch race bird of his decade.”
Golden Gaby: “40, 1st place winners reported down from him in just one season alone!”
Perfect Cock, “Best breeding son of Shadow in America!” [Shadow: “Best breeding cock to ever leave Gaby’s loft!”
Tadlock “10K Hen”: (dam of foundation breeder, Tenacity 142) “I bought the entire loft out, just to get that pair and two daughters!”
All that, and on top of it...a, topper in my Boot Camp…strongest homing, hi IQ, drive to home, and athleticism. Two impressive examples: 1 of only 15 Day birds from a toss at 20 minutes before sunset; then next day, different location, one of only three Day 1 birds – in the rain.
My notes: “Small, shorter but with a nice wing, a little keely, a one-finger ab, strong wrenching beak pull, some "dreibar" (3rd bar, which Mark Evans finds correlates with good feather/vitality), and fought for flypen corner against OC’s!!
A July 4th hatch, but he’s been very much an active male for months. With his strong character and pedigree, he just needs a mate with an excellent body and you’ll get many, “complete package racers”.
Ped coming soon…
