Answer 1

Where oh where do some of the folks who answer these questions come from????

What you're asking is which "family" of racing birds is the best.  Well, now, the question becomes what do you want them for?  Sprint races, middle distance races, long distance races?  What?

The best family is that which will accomplish what you want them to do.   I'm going to let you in on a little secret - don't always get caught up in strain (family) names.  However, they exist because some families tend to do better than others at particular distances.

Janssen is one of the top families of all.  Janssen birds have won pretty much at all distances, but remember, it's also the fancier and how he trains, flies -- natural, widowhood, etc., that allows a bird to develop to its full potential.

Also, remember that a bird that is great on a course like California, might not be so good in Nebraska  or in G Britain over the Channel and vice versa.

Basically, your question is unanswerable without more info. I'm glad to see that you're trying to find out more about race birds - I seriously suggest that you try to check out more local sources for you.

As I think I told you before - check out the AU site and try to find a local club to see what the flyers in your area are breeding and winning with.  http://www.pigeon.org

If you're in an area where the IF (International Federation of Homing Pigeon Fanciers) is more common then check out http://www.ifpigeon.com  

Here's a link to just one site in Australia where the man flies various family lines (Aarden, Leen Boers, Janssen, )
