Frost is brother Avril
In the last 2 weeks I have received more information about birds from Frost .
So far no more than about 4 birds have been bred from him each year and over 50 have won prizes or bred prize winners. He has not had a year without birds from him winning races.
I had a call from a local fancier who has 1 bird bred from a Son of Frost and this won 2 prizes (1X first and 1X third)
Someone in Scotland had a Grandchild from Frost and won.
Plus a Son from Frost had a first this year.
His daughter in the RPRA 1 loft race won:

The 2nd place Overall Champion bird was the Jos Thone hen, 2009-CU-WWG-621, as granddaughter Sumo bred by Andy Larentzakis.
This same hen, 2009-CU-WWG-621 also won an `` Award of Excellence``, only 3 in my category for all of Canada were won this year and I won all 3. ( Also, only one Award of Excellence was won in the 2 categories above me for all of Canada).
2009-CU-WWG-621 also won the award I told you that I wanted to win, `` 1st Provincial Award-Young Birds`` for Ontario. No other provinces won in this category, which has a tough criteria to meet so as to qualify.
