Description
US2021 MISSIL 24092 Blue Bar Cock
Son of 'Mayweather' & 'Tia Chica' (Triple Crown Winner San Diego $100,000)
Full-Brother of Sierra Ranch Top-2 Foundation Cock 'Missil'
'MISSIL 24092' was bred by Missils Castro of Arizona and purchased by Steve Sterchi in 2022. The reason that Steve purchased 'MISSIL 24092' was because of the great success Steve was having with his Ful-Brother a 2016 cock 'Missil'. 'Missil' (2016) has become one of the Top-2 Breeding Males at Sierra Ranch over the past five or six years along with his Son '1755'. 'Missil' is Father and Grandfather of numerous OLR Winners.
'MISSIL 24092' is a Son of 'Mayweather' and 'Tia Chica' who was the 1st Overall Triple Crown Winner in the Triple Crown San Diego Series 2013. She won $100,000. 'Mayweather' is a Son of 'Camillo' the #1 Breeding Male for Missils Castro and he himself just 22 seconds from the winning 1st Drop in the Triple Crown Race San Diego.
Upon reviewing Steve's breeding records, only 5 youngsters total in two years have been bred from 'MISSIL 24092' and only two of those were sent out to one loft races. He has been very lightly used. Time will tell if he ends up being anywhere close to as good as his Full-Brother.

All Children of the 2016 Foundation Male 'Missil' Above....
'MISSIL 24092' is medium-large in size and very well put together with a great body. Despite being above medium in size, he is still very well balanced and bouyant with a strong frame/back, tight vents, lots of muscle and strength, nice feather, etc. He is longer cast with tremendous wing and muscle vibration. He has nice bright orange eyes. He shows good character and is very high strung and alert. Ships with Original Missils Castro Pedigree.
He is for sale as part of the late Steve Sterchi (Sierra Ranch's) Estate Sale for some of his top breeders. My friend Steve passed away last fall and I (Matt Hans) am listing some of the top birds here on Ipigeon for his wife Kim. Proceeds from auction go to Steve's wife Kim.
