MULLIGAN'S PLACE LOFT:

A Decade= of Success and Consistency with the Same Birds!

Mulligan's Place Loft of Staten Island, New York, needs no introduction to the racing pigeon sport. Winner of over 100 national awards= , and flying in the toughest competition it can find, its spectacular consistency= and success since 1985 is phenomenal.

For the first time, the partnershi= p of Titus Reinhart, Peter Wellington and Bob Prisco offers us a look into the breeding loft responsible for generations of super racers and breeders. It clearly deserves the title "America's Premier Performance Loft."

Here are the Janssen, Huysken Van Riels and Imbrecht bloodlines that made it all happen:

PAIR I=

Famous "85 No Bands" Pair (Imbrecht)

Cock - 85-Blue Checker<= /span>

No history is known about their ancestry, except that they are Imbrecht.&n= bsp; Mated together in 1986, they have produced 23 direct children that h= ave won 21 races and 90 diplomas from distances of 82 to 544 miles. Their children include Hall of Fam= e, Ace Pigeons and Championship Birds. However, their real value is in the breeding loft. They blend with our HVR and Janssen bloodlines to produce exceptional racers and breeders.

The birds mentioned in this article represent 3 families blended for 100 to 600 mile performance and four generations of success for over a decade.&= nbsp; Many birds were bred with some success, but they were eliminated bec= ause they did not meet Mulligan's standards.

The ideas of pigeon fanciers conti= nue to change with new strains, different techniques and advanced technology. However, winning today is what is important. The pigeons that w= in today for Mulligan's are the same birds that won 10 years ago. Mulligan's philosophy is simple and practical: "PERFORMANCE PIGEONS FROM PERFORMANCE BLOODLINES COMPETING IN THE TOUGHEST COMPETITION IN THE U.S.A."
