Re: Lost Racing Pigeons
Totally agree Adam. There are some unpleasant videos on YouTube regard the, hopefully, few racing blokes and their intolerance of short comings in their birds. I wonder what the law is regarding attempting to catch lost birds which are in the middle of towns and parks surrounded by the general publi...

I’ve always thought of them as lost forever as the two racing blokes that I know both say they’d not want any bird returned and if it wa...

American Show Racers
A new breed for me as I’ve always worked with tipplers. ASRs are an incredible bird. I was first attracted to that handsome head out line and big, bulky bulldog like physique but would say that everything really is bigger and better particularly their temperament. Incredibly confident and trusting t...

Re: English Flying Tipplers
Sheffield tippler. This is the only bird I could get hold of. Really liked the colour so am putting it with my Pilots with the aim of establishing a recessive red kit. This is the her first season with me despite being an old bird. So far she’s produced three youngsters all blues. All look like hens...

Re: English Flying Tipplers
Totally agree. I think it is a marketing ploy to catch the newbies.

Re: Indigo spread recessive opal
Very interesting post. Thank you for sharing this. Intrigued by the eye…is that similar to an albino?

Re: English Flying Tipplers
Thanks Adam. Incredible athletes and quite marked physical differences between ‘strains’ or should I say the person credited with first developing them. These silver Bowden’s are quite big compared with the Pilot’s. People advertise their birds by the name of the original developer yet the birds mig...
