– I was flying a team of old birds. Everyone is a late hatch. Started with 46 and ended up with 18. I culled several, the hawks got 6 that I know of (I found parts in the yard and in the neighborhood) and I lost a few in the races. I flew in the SWWR Club. I was in the middle of the sheet for the most part. I didn't pay attention to the combine yet. Next year I will have a better chance, I figure I will have a better season because I will vaccinate and treat for the common diseases early. I generally cull sick birds BUT my birds have not been exposed to the common diseases found up here. I want to thank Dr Chen, Tim Farr, and Glen Steelhammer for their help getting me through this mess. I never have had sick birds like this so it is a learning experience and one I do not want to repeat. So I look forward to the Young bird season.
The Gurnays do have the homing instinct and once I change my training to fly with other fliers I will be able to judge the better. Have a great summer

Hello. We received the two boxes today with the four Hansenne pigeons. Arrived in excellent condition.

Thank you so much, i got the bird! He's so beautiful, pin tail apple body, nice wing :)
Hello there, My name is Mike and live in Az, I had racing pigeons when I was young and now Im not young haha 61, Semi retired and determined to move to a place where I can fly birds again, want to get my grandkids involved. Anyway as a kid I flew some Sions and really enjoyed your website. When Im ready would love to get a few Sions again and see how they do. Any advice for an old newbie? lol
Hey Donnie, Saw your Birds on Ipigeon and must say, those are some Beautiful Heitzmans. They are very true to what I called the real thing. Beautiful Hansennes as well. Take Care, Chuck
Hi
I have placed the pigeon recieved from you recently in a priority express shipment back to you in same box recieved. Bird was beautiful and healthy but we realized it’s nature is such that it needs to fly and be a racing pigeon. We can’t offer that life to it and realize it was a mistake to try this based on our situation
Bird has had not been outside and has been confined indoors in isolation since recieved.
Please give it the home it deserves.
Appreciate the care you took getting it to us!!!
Need some color on my team. Had some sion couple years ago when i had a partner who sick and could not care for his own birds. He liked sions so i bought some from you on pigeonauction.com. We alot of fun his sions against my team .He has since past on. His family called me and thanked me for letting fly with me he really looked forward race day. HE WON EVERY WEEK

Thank you guys so much for allowing me the opportunity to love these birds.
Thanks again for the most beautiful Pure Paul Sions pigeons ever!! The loft is full of happy sounds from the birds strutting around in their new home. Y’all were so easy to work thru my problems of birds I chose.
Thanks a million times over Pam and Donnie. Your friend Jimi
