AU 18 BRX 1246 Blue Check Cock. Bred by Mike Cortes and his Renegade Loft. Mike's birds have made a name for themselves around the USA, especially the Chocolates, as Mike and his partner Cesar Zayas were the actual breeders of Gallo's famous "Classic Boy."Mike is also the main advisor and loft manager for Richard Geurts and his Dutchman Loft, which has had great success in the extremely competitive Gulf Coast Club of Florida.
Mike knows pigeons, and he knows how to breed good ones. This
cock is a very nice example of how Mike likes to breed. The Chocolate family onto one of the hottest families going, the Heremans. This combo has produced winners for Mike and Richard Geurts in Florida as well as other lofts around the USA.
1246's sire is a direct son of the foundation cock of the Chocolates, the "Old Mosaic." The dam of 1246 was bred by Oscar Devries in Canada. Sire is "Donald" 1st Ace Sprinter of the Canadian Racing Pigeon Union. "Donald" is himself half Heremans out of the famous "Leo" paired to a super Janssen hen. That pair produced
a lot of good ones for Oscar. The dam of 2210 is a direct daughter of the famous Heremans superstar "Euro." Thus the dam to "1246" is 3/4 Heremans.
We apologize for the error, but so me pedigree info was not correct in the first listing on this bird
Please also note that we originally posted this bird as a hen. It is a
cock. The data is correct now. It is still a very, very nice bird! Ed Minvielle
