Buy some Ruby's from Tony. You will get good birds and have
support after your purchase. You will be happy! Tony's birds
have work great for me and many others.

Welcome!! I fly Tony's Rubys, seven years now and I have been
very satisfied. They can be bred for contest or individual
spinners. I would reccomend them for a newbie or old pro.
Take care
Thom

Since you have had rollers in the past, I assume you have some
preference as to performance traits you desire most. I suggest
looking through the NBRC directory

HTML http://www.nbrconline.org/directory/
and find people near you.
Find out when a fly may be happening and go and see some
birds/kits in the air. Try to acquire some of those that suit
your preferences most.
I think Tony has a good product in his birds. However to buy on
hearsay and reference is risky still without seeing the
potential your seeking in the air. There are lots of rollers
around the country. You shouldnt have to pay an unreasonable
amount to get some, but you will likely have to pay, to get
started at least. This is a god time of the yr to find young
birds. It is late in the breeding season and getting some extra
young from people can be a great way to start back.
