Hi Donnie;
Since we spoke yesterday morning, I have spent more time looking thru the birds you have posted for sale and their pedigrees. I am quite interested in acquiring some of your Sions, either as breeders or perhaps a YB kit in the spring.
People have preferences when it comes to everything from politics to toothpicks. When it comes to pigeons, I prefer birds without white in their plumage. I have 121 birds and only 8 of them have one or more white flights. Some of those 8 are also pied. My wife's birds are of mixed strains and she has lots of grizzles, whites, white flights and splashes. I don't. Mine are all BB, BC, Silvers, or RC. I spotted several appealing birds on your site that appeared to be void of white plumage, but when I looked at their pedigrees, I noted that the pedigrees were sprinkled with white flights or splashes. While the bird being pedigreed may be void of white, it still carries the white gene. Although I admit to having 8 birds with white flights, I try to keep those genes buried deep so I don't get too much white in my birds. Hawks seem to zero in on the white plumage and we have lots of hawks.
I shall continue to monitor your postings

Pam please tell Donnie these Hansennes do indeed have a lot of class. Large wings like I've never seen like maybe on a duck or owl. They have a lovely prance, and their Roman noses takes the cake. Love it! Keep up the good breeding Donnie.
Dear Don,
Just sending a gift for my appreciation for getting such nice Sion birds from you. When I get some youngsters from them, I will send you some photos. I am still planning on purchase another hen and cock. Have a good breeding season with your birds.
Received birds this morning here in Missouri. They are safe and both beautiful.
Beautiful female pigeon. Lovely mix of colors, fether quality and great posture. I figured her picture wasn't the best pose. The male is impressive and very masculine looking and I'm happy to say they are calm and get along very well together. Thanks again they are gorgeous....
The birds arrived today got them all tucked in the loft. You saved the best for last I think there nice birds ,,only sorry I didn't buy a couple of the other hens. Thanks alot
Hello. I received the birds today they look great. Thank you very much.
The Hen is here! Awesome bird & I can feel the power just holding her. She is very calm pigeon & that is always a plus. Thanks so much!
Hi this is Nate from Wisconsin. I just wanted to let you know the Andalusian cockbird made it here in good shape today. Thanks again!
Hi Don, birds are adapting well. I like their presentaion & calmness. Looks like they will fit in with my birds. I see what you mean about the BB. We'll see how he produces. Might b a genetic thing & go away when crossed with and unrelated hen.
Regards
Jim
