Father and daughter matting and have 2 squeaker just born. Not breeding for the color. As the hen has been my best one in the air for 2 years now and have not got nothing better in the air than her. I want more like her so I think the best advise is to breed her back to her father.
They look even better in person.

I think your on the right track but there offspring will be more like there father/Grand father thats what is known as a 3/4 mating. looks good to me.

Thats what breeding a pigeon back to is all about ,breeding the hen back to the father is banking on his gene since he produce it you keeping it within the circle.but the idea is like you stated above breeding something back to the hen because you want more of her.so you be banking on her instead.. nice birds Quick ..good luck..

I can attest to these birds, they look better in person and feel even better in the hand. These birds are just built right for some serious spin. I wouldn't mind having them in my own loft.

remember you are doubling all the genes just remember they might be all good some ok and some real bad that just the way it is when you start to jam it up I try not to go so close a did last year and I will never do it again
But remember what am telling you is what happened at my house and with my experiences with my family of birds
One thing is for sure you will have alot of grizzle and whites(double factors).

I will breed around 4-6 offspring to try them out. I still have 2 more cocks that I need to try out with that grizzle hen. I didn't wanted to try two grizzle together but there is only one way to find out the results. I just hope they are not too hot as she was right in between the line of been hot.

That's what I have heard a No No with two grizzle's but it shouldn't matter the color nothing with performance. I think is the same as breeding to Blue check or two Reds but will see.

I would put my best black self on her.My opinion is two grizzles so close in make up will have a high percentage of degeneration.Interesting to see what comes out of it though,possibly to much heat....Aloha,Todd
