We're introducing a groundbreaking solution: a breeding station for Victoria Falls OLR.

This breeding station aims to:

1. Reduce losses by receiving younger pigeons into the race loft
2. Reduce quarantine and shipping time, limitations and costs
3. Overcome international pigeon shipping bans

To address this, we're introducing a breeding station right here in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Here's the plan:

1. Breeding Stock: Pigeon fanciers can supply stock birds to our breeding station in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe (400 km from the race loft). The stock can be imported by stock owners, purchased at auctions (including our auction), or sourced from fanciers in Zimbabwe or South Africa.

2. Young, Healthy Pigeons: By breeding and raising pigeons locally, we eliminate the lengthy quarantine periods and shipping delays as well as possible shipping bans. The birds will be bred, cared for and sent to Victoria Falls at an optimal age, ready for early training. The stock pigeons will remain the property of the stock owners.

3. Breeding Facility: Our secure facility in Bulawayo is equipped with its own quarantine, individual breeding pens where the pair will raise their own babies (no fostering of eggs or babies), and competent pigeon staff managing the pigeons. Only healthy, robust babies will be transferred to the race loft.

4. Annual Administration: There will be an annual charge for the administration and upkeep of the breeding birds. Space is limited, with a maximum of five pairs per account holder.

5. Inspection and DNA Testing: Our facility is open for inspections by appointment, and we offer DNA testing services for all birds sold in our auction to determine sex.

This initiative aims to breed pigeons in Zimbabwe, in the right climate, and at the right time, ensuring better performance and lower losses in our race. We're confident this concept will revolutionise pigeon racing and invite you to join us in this exciting venture!
