AU-2023 AUB 486 Grizzle Cock
"AUB 486" is a nice handling high character July 2023 hatch White Grizzle. Father "37911" is heavily inbred to my white family and a Son of two of the very best foundation breeders. "37911" is a Brother to 2nd/3rd/4th Club Champion Birds + (2) Different OLR Final Race 1st and Equal 1sts.
Mother "Hang 305" is one of the best hens I have ever bred and flown and was retired from Old Bird team 3 races into the 2022. In her prior two seasons she had won (8) x 1st or Equal 1st + 1st Club Champion Old Bird 2021 on the south course from the central valley coming up through the lower foothills. In 2022 I switched back to racing NE with the combine from Nevada over the high sierra mountains. On her second race she won 10th Combine and a week later on just her third east course race, she won 1st Place Combine (16 Minutes Ahead of the next loft!) That's when I knew I had a really special pigeon and she was immediately retired.
In 2.5 seasons of racing "Hang 305" won:
1st Overall Club Champion Old Bird 2021 (South Course)
1st Place Combine @ 222 Miles vs. 353 Birds/26 Lofts (East Course ~ 16 Minutes Ahead Next Loft!)
1st Place Club @ 169 Miles vs. 103 Birds/4 Lofts

Several Brothers/Sisters of both Parents are 1st Place Winners including multiple 1st Combine Winners. Siblings of Parents are also top breeders such as an Uncle Grizzle "Ice Man" that bred a 1st Place Final Race OLR Winner and Equal 1st Final Race OLR Winner.
"AUB 486" was bred in an individual breeding pen. He is medium-small in size and longer cast with nice length to his wings, a balanced frame, nice wing with strong vibration, tight vents, etc. He has pearl eyes and shows great character really struggling in the hand. He responds great to the beak pull test. A very high strung highly alert pigeon.
