*A very pleased Mick Betts holding his 3rd Open MNFC Coutances Young Bird National 2016...
Mick Betts from Doncaster phoned to inform us of his excellent result in last Saturdays MNFC young bird race from Coutances against more than 4000 birds. This was a very tough race indeed and the early birds in this race can really be considered top class.
The mother of his 3rd Open winner is a direct Johan Donckers of Grobbendonk and the father was bred by ourselves and bought by Mick at our Doncaster auction last season. He was bred from Amadeus a young breeding son of Di Caprio when he was coupled to Manon also a direct Johan Donckers bred from his number one cock Oude Asduif.
The bloodline of Johan Donckers has bred some very good racers from the word go. The sister of Micks 3rd Open winner was his best young bird this season and it is well known that Mick has a multitude of good birds. Leon the nest brother to Manon also bred the 3rd Open Perth NRCC young bird winner for Ray Knight and family last season, once again in a testing race.
Johan Donckers himself won 5th Midfond Asduif KBDB this season with a hen bred from a son of Oude Asduif coupled with a daughter of Jonge Asduif a full sister of Manon. Just top classic winning bloodlines.
Many congratulations to Mr and Mrs Betts for a very good performance…
