Inbred to Miss Maurice — a brother-to-sister mating, in Maurice O’Donnell’s own words
IHU26-067484 — Gay Pied Cock. The O’Donnell card labels this one plainly: "a very close inbred to Miss Maurice, brother × sister mating." The sire is a full brother to Miss Maurice, the dam a full sister, so all four grandparents reduce to two pigeons — Star Boy and the mother of Miss Maurice.
B16-6037045 — the mother of Miss Maurice and a direct daughter of Polo Barcelona, National Ace Pigeon from Barcelona at 1,100km three years running: 2017, 2018 and 2019.
Miss Maurice won the Knockout in the South Africa Million Dollar Race 2020, was best bird over five Hotspots and the Final combined, and was purchased by Lendos Family Lofts in the USA for $70,000. She has since bred a winner of an OLR in Mexico and 5th in the Evolution Final OLR over 365 miles in the USA.
From the O’Donnell card: INBRED MISS MAURICE, BROTHER × SISTER MATING — and Maurice’s own line, "ideal for crossing into another family"
Behind it: Star Boy, Miss Maurice (SAMDPR Knockout Winner), Miss Debbie (1st Pattaya International OLR, 10,000+ birds), Sapsan (co-winner Algarve Golden Race) and Polo Barcelona, National Ace Pigeon from Barcelona three years running.
Bred by Maurice O’Donnell. Pedigree card handwritten and signed.
