Actually, Jay, I think a kit of white rollers flown portable would be much grander sight for the relatives of the dearly-departed or the guests of the newly-hitched, and for a longer period of time for folks to enjoy them, than a kit of homers who might make a couple circles and book home.
JMHO, Cliff

Hey,Guys,
I would think pure white,pure Birmingham Rollers would be rare.How would you breed them??Grizzle to grizzle to get pure whites?

No, not really all that rare. Yep, grizzle to grizzle will get you there, or a line of recessive whites.

Hey Ronnie,
Yeah but he's had hawk problems and an overfly that has reduced his numbers from 22 down to 12. He had some fast 20-footers that he lost. Anybody who says a white bird can't spin fast is nuts!!! I think he'll be in for the 11-bird at least. You flying anything this year?
YITS,
Cliff

Hey Cliff.
Sorry to hear Carter lost that many birds. I to have been visited by the sky sharks pretty heavy. I guess I have been lucky thus far by only losing 4 birds. I went out this morning and Mr shark was just sitting there waiting for me to open the door for breakfast...lol.
I flew this evening and didn't get hit. I noticed the birds perform better in the AM for some reason.
I havent yet decided if I will fly the fall fly. I would like to see my best birds NOT get broke down by the hawks and just hold them for next years WC fly. I have a hand full of youngsters coming off right now and are to good not to fly out. I really don't expect them to make it, but we will see what happens.
I hope I get an invite up to see your birds this FF. It's always a great time with lots of action in your neighborhhood.
See ya soon.
Ben & Ronnie BR Rollers
PS Ben's birds are doing better then mine! Damn I knew it!!!

Are white Rollers hard to find and hard to breed?

Does anybody want to buy 7 yearling white homers. I have a friend in Sacramento that has them and does not want them...he only wants 10bucks a piece. E-mail me and I will give you his phone number if interested. paulfullerton@sbcglobal.net.
As for white rollers. I hae three young birds that are white rollers....two have very slight ticking and one is pure white. Anyway...got two from a brown grizzle hen and tort cock, and another from a red grizzle hen and a blue check pepperhead. was not trying for white...they just came out that way...if they roll good then they will get a shot at the A-team or stock loft..I am color blind..LOL!!
rock and ROLL
