  1. If you just feed and water, clean up after them were is the fun.
    There is no money in club races, so what is the draw to keep them? To me it is all the side things, like eyesign, wing theory, genetics, colors. I play with it all. I’m no expert on any of it but that is what makes it fun. If all you had to do was find a great eye and win everything I would have to drop out because I can not speed the money some can to aquire EYES. Got to be more to it than that.

  2. I dont know a whole lot about eye sign.I feel overall health internal and external is more important especally for race birds.If a bird is sick or cant breath properly what good is his eyes?

  3. I have found through the years that an intelligent looking head and eye and the sharpness of how a bird conducts itself means much more than the conventional way some try to express certain “qualities” they see in the eye. I do believe distance traits in certain breeds can be seen in the eye that can be duplicated by breeding this characteristic. Like I have heard many times, eyesign is not a sure sign of a champion, but all champions have good eyesign. Charles

  4. I like to see a healthy set of eyes. But have a hard time believing that it is a deal breaker. Race results and the over all health of the bird is what I am looking for. Performance is overall the key to my breading program. With that said, if the birds eyes are not healthy looking then that bird will not go in the breading program.

  5. I dont profess to know all there is to know about eyesign???
    I do however know people who given the chance will pick out your best birds
    like alot of people I to am fasinated by eyesign
    I also know its not everybodys cup of tea
    so I wont push it ????????

  6. Hi,I enjoyed the video clip,and found the contents informative,it also adress some of the red herrings abouy the eye sign theory

  7. I think eye sign is a bunch of bull. An eye sign expert said my champion hen wouldn’t make it home from 10 mi, yet she is an AU champ. He then said to cull my best pair of breeders one of their young was 1st club 12 combine at 500 mi with really bad weather, another was 1 st club 4 th combine on the 600 with good weather. I must be an idiot cause I paid money for his expertise. All they really need is 2 eyes. JMO

  8. I agree – I think it is just a cranky con – the best birds win races by beating the opposition – not by applying mascara lol

  9. I really don’t think eye sign makes a difference. We don’t look at people or other animals to say yeah, he is a good racer. IMO.
