They look like Reed birds but the only person that would know is the person that cut the bands off. Not really a good idea to cut off band but don't know his reason.
Breed them if they produce good birds then no matter if they are Reed or not.
Good luck with them.

Honestly, those don't look anything like any Reeds I've ever seen or owned. They more resemble Horners in my opinion.

This are two full brothers bred by Norm Reed him self. You can't be 100% to know who bred them by looking at them. You can't even tell if this two are brothers.
The hen is also a Reed but not bred by him. The cock is bred by Norm Reed.

I was thinking. Something stayed on my mind. Why would anyone take the time to cut off of a band from a bird, that someone else bred if, the bird is not stolen? The sh--- that people do kills me
Quick Spin. That is the real deal. Guaranteed

Jesus, I would fly them out first. If they roll for you at a high level then I would breed out of them. Good luck.

They were free right? fly the P%%s outa them. If they are good in the air, put `em up and breed, breed ,breed. Dont get caught up in a name thing. From now on they are your birds.
I also dont understand why anyone would cut off the bands ???

Jesus,
Not to say anything bad about anybody but if you want make sure they are from Norm Reeds you can go to Norms house and pick them out the air. I went a few years back and picked birds out of the air for $75.00 each. The other thing is that you can find some one close to you with Norm Reeds blood and get a few from them. No way would I trust that those birds came from Norm.
