STRATUS LOFTS Pigeon Dynamics - 3 September 2020 to 9 SEPTEMBER 2020 (20:00)

Pigeon Dynamics
Top pigeon Sale
Pigeon Dynamics is announcing a revolutionary racing circuit for South African pigeon fanciers. The Cradle of Humankind will be the backdrop for this racing circuit signaling ‘The Beginning”
To help raise awareness I have personally hand selected 5 pigeons from Stratus lofts, these birds were all selected based on handling and pedigrees. These birds will be of great value to any breeding program and will help support the new racing circuit.
ALPHA: Membership applications now Open! Please feel free to request application forms and send pedigrees to [email protected]. Anyone up for the challenge is welcome to send a maximum of 10 racing pigeons free of charge (subject to terms and conditions available on https://www.pigeondynamics.co.za).
BETA: Testing will commence from 1 November 2020, extra rewards with no monthly subscription for 12 months for new members willing to help with the testing and extra functionality that needs to be in place for the official launch 01 Jan 2021.
There is much more planned and BETA users will have exclusive insights and shape this new concept in racing pigeons. The intention is that even if you can’t have racing/breeding lofts of your own you can still own a couple of great racing pigeons and experience the thrill of winning against the odds.
