The Nel Brothers Stud
Our Birds

We initially purchased 4 pairs from the Molkentin stud and 2 pairs from Arthur Windell in 1996. We then purchased 3 pairs of Lutino's to start our Lutino line. This was our initial stock. Since then we have purchased a number of birds from the Molkentin Stud and done away with all the Lutino's and other lines we bred. Our birds have steadily improved over the years. In 2001 we imported 2 cocks from Fred Wright to start a different line to run alongside our Molkentin line. We now have two lines in our aviary which are tracked closely on our record system to ensure they do not become closely related although the original hens used on the two Fred Wright cocks were from the Molkentin stock we had bred. Our stud is now exclusively based on Molkentin birds.
