Don’t miss this opportunity to purchase some of the best distance birds of named fliers

R. Rayner S. Moore Wickham’s Harrison’s Murray Ray

This is a chance to purchase some very good hard day pigeons that won’t let you down. I always believe in the old saying, “Don’t talk about it, ……… put it on the board”. 2-4 year old pigeons. All of these birds have flown the track.

This family of pigeons has produced 22 Fed places for the 2009 season.

My early years of racing In the early 1970’s I started racing pigeons with the Coburg Homing Club. There was a flier by the name of J. Dean who gave me a pair of pigeons from the original Harrison blood line.

I crossed these birds with my Blue Bar family, Barker and Bill Brown’s Wickham’s from South Australia. These two pairs of pigeons, in the first year, produce me thirteen youngsters that went on to fly every race throughout the season. They won fourteen out of sixteen races in the club. Coburg was a strong club at the time. In the early 80’s I joined the V.R.P.U. racing the north east track. It was a hard season. I had forty three birds, raced them every week right throughout the track. I won the union averages pretty comfortably that year winning a record amount of money. In the mid 80’s I joined the Thomastown pigeon club. It was a very competitive club. I won the averages two years in a row. In 1985 I produced three champion pigeons. The names of these birds were The Tame Hen, Bionic and Brower Power. These three birds became the foundation of my pigeon family.

Frank Velluto

The Bionic Pigeon In my younger years I was privileged to fly in the company of Ricky Rayner. Rick never kept many birds, he only ever kept nine pairs of pigeons. He believed in strength and quality.

I was always close to Rick and in the last six months before he passed away I was fortunate enough to get some of his best stock pigeons.

One day Rick said “have a pick of the loft …….. any youngster you like”. So I was looking at the birds for a couple of minutes and picked out a blue checker cock. This youngster developed into a very strong bird.

The next breeding season I paired this bird with a blue checker hen from the Sid Moore bloodline off Working Girl. This pair produced a blue checker pied hen VRPU85 17376. In 1986 this hen flew every race in the north east line. There were many hard races that season. This hen took four fed places before she was injured in a hard 400 mile race. She came home with a ripped chest that needed 25 stitches. The following week there was a two bird special race. Being a bit silly I raced her again. That night she got home at 1.30 in the morning. Three days later she was put back into a 500 mile race that ended up being a smash. The next morning I was so confident I was going to get her I was looking straight at the north east, and. early hours of the morning I saw her come straight on line.

I couldn’t believe what she had achieved. That morning I rang Greg Iurato and he couldn’t believe what that hen had done and he told me that bird has got to be a “bionic” pigeon. So that’s how she got her name Bionic.

Bionic was put into stock and I paired her up with a blue checker VRPU-85-17304. This cock was 7th Fed Narandara and 3rd Fed 400 miles. This cock was a Murray Ray / Wickham cross. This pair produced 4 x 400 mile Fed winners and 1st Fed national over 10,350 pigeons, velocity of 1,033 yards per minute and the most birds ever to fly in the national. Bionic then produced another national winner a few years later being a short flier living in Beveredge, I had the leading clock in a very fast race close to 1,800 yards per minute and the best bird in the north section. There were no other birds from the north that got into the top 20 in the national that year. This proved to me that these birds not only can fly hard races but they are also very versatile pigeons in fast racing.

The original Ricky Rayner cock that produced Bionic also produced many Fed places in hard races. 2nd Fed Bookaloo and over 13 Fed places. It also produced a blue bar cock that was given to Joe Denaro. This cock produced the Two Birder Hen which became the foundation hen of his loft. This cock was paired up with a hen I had also given Joe that raced most consistent in 1987 and this checker hen also had Ricky Rayner bloodline with my blue bar family cross Harrison. She was known as Tame Hen, another top hen the same season as Bionic. The Tame Hen was a double Fed pigeon. She won a 350 mile race by over 30 minutes.

In the 38 years I have been in the pigeon game I have always believed in pushing the birds to the limits. I have had many great achievements and get the best out of them in hard and long distance races.

I believe this family of pigeons makes very good crosses with import pigeons because they have very strong body structure and good staying ability, flying 12 to 13 hours on the wing.

Due to family reasons I had a break from pigeon racing for 6-7 years. During this time I kept the families close together for when I returned to racing. In the 2009 season, this family of pigeons has taken 22 federation places including distance races: 1st fed Cobar 400 miles 2nd fed Burke 500 miles

3rd Fed Cobar 400 miles 5th fed Burke 500miles

10th fed national Cobar 1st fed 600 Barringun

Being one of the shortest time fliers I was very happy with that.

The Tame Hen

VRPU-85-17372

Blue Bar Hen

Harrison

This pigeon was a beautiful looking Harrison hen. So tame that she would sit on my back as I cleaned my loft. This is how she got her name, The Tame Hen. In a 370 mile race, this hen arrived home and landed on the landing board. She walked towards me but would not go in the trap, I lost 3 ½ minutes. It cost me a 1st Fed place. The following week I raced her again.

The race was a lot harder than the week before with a head wind and rain. I expected her to hit the landing board, but instead she flew onto my shoulder. I wasted no time in clocking her and won the race by 40 meters doing 1100 yards per minute in a 370 mile race. The direct daughter of this hen produced Joe Denaro his Two Birder hen which is one of Joe Denaro’s foundation pigeons. The Two Birder Hen’s sire was one of Bionic’s uncles. Another two direct daughters from The Tame Hen produced two 500 mile Fed winners, and a direct son produced a 600 mile Fed winner, winning by 3 hours for John Fenech. A grandson to The Tame Hen produced a 600 mile Fed winner for me in 2009 doing 1,079 yards per minute. This Harrison blood line has proven to be durable to all conditions from 100 -600 miles.

Wickham’s / Murray Ray The first Wickham that was given to me was from Bill Brown from the Coburg club. It was an unrung youngster, single nester in a box. The blue checker cock turned out to be one of my best foundation pigeons in my loft. I paired the cock bird with one of the Murray Ray’s dark blue checker hens that was a full sister to a 600 mile Bookaloo Fed winner. She won 1st Fed 300 miles. This pair produced me seventeen Fed places and produced my foundation cock. His name was Brower Power VRPU-85-17304 blue checker cock.

Brower Power was a very strong cock who flew the north east track every race throughout the season. He was my most consistent cock that season. When the season ended I paired him up with my most consistent hen, Bionic. In the first season I produced two hens off this pair. One of these hens took 2nd Fed place in the produce. She missed out on 1st place by .13 of a second. The other hen won 1st Fed open National 400 miles in a hard day race flying against 10,300 pigeons. Her velocity was 1,033 yards per minute. This national is still one of the biggest nationals ever flown with so many birds competing. Brower Power went on to produce another 3 x 400 mile Fed winners, 3 x 2nd Fed and over 7 other Federation places.

Rain Lover (pictured on front of catalogue) VRPU-03-8818 Blue checker hen

This hen is a direct granddaughter of Bionic VRPU-85-17376 blue checker pied hen on her son’s side. She has produced me ten Fed places in the ’08 / ’09 season. She is dam of the 2009 Western Cup Winner 400 mile from Cobar. There were head winds and heavy rain. I clocked early the next morning winning the race by 1 hour. Her grandmother, a blue bar hen, VRPU-95-13826 Iurato brothers purchased this hen from me. They then loaned her to George Vella to breed from. That hen produced George 2 x 500 and 1 x 600 mile in the year he won the VHA aggregate. In all the years I have raced pigeons I have always loved creating birds that can fly distance and hard races. I believe this family of pigeons would be a very good cross with the Euro’s. They have a good homing instinct and strong bodies to keep coming.
