Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fantail Pigeon: How to Breed, Manage, and Exhibit It seems strange that although amongst the Fancy proper there should be so few steadfast adherents to the Fantail, yet amongst those who keep Pigeons merely as a hobby, it is one of the most popular and largely kept varieties. Again, many fanciers of other varieties keep an odd pair or two of Fans just for the love of the thing, as they say, and because they like to see them about. Its graceful carriage and peculiar motion make the F antail a very interesting bird to anyone; in fact, at a Show, no class attracts so much attention from visitors as does that set apart for the jaunty little Fan.

Book Synopsis The Fantail Pigeon; How to Breed, Manage, and Exhibit by : C A House
Download or read book The Fantail Pigeon; How to Breed, Manage, and Exhibit written by C A House and published by Theclassics.Us. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ...in mating for correct markings, combined with other properties, yet, how often do they get fooled in the markings of the progeny, and this after a long experience at the game. I'have come to the conclusion that there is a considerable amount of what some would call luck or haphazard chance work in the breeding of Saddles, although even here patient continuance in welldoing gets its reward. I have known many very wellmarked Saddles that have been bred from indifferently marked parents, and about as perfectly a marked Saddle I ever saw was produced from a badly mis-marked Saddle cock and a pure white hen--saddle-bred, of course, hence the vagaries of fickle fortune. Yet some strains throw birds much clearer than others. In 1896, at the Crystal Palace Show, I won what is the most valued trophy I possess, the silver cup given by the late George Ure for the best Saddle in the show, with a red hen an illustration of which accompanies this chapter. This hen was naturally very clean, and every bird I bred from her sire had few, if any, foul feathers about the body. This cock afterwards passed into the possession of Messrs. Lee & Gray, and their experience was the same as mine, his youngsters all came remarkably clear. With all the foregoing thrown in, there is nothing in the whole of the Fantail Fancy more engrossing than the breeding of Saddles. The very uncertainty attendant upon it only lends zest to the breeding operations year after year, and when one succeeds in getting a real tip-topper, like the beforementioned Champion Ruby of Mr. Stevenson's, the red cock which won the challenge cup for Messrs. Harmston two years since, or Mr. Lee's lovely black which annexed the same trophy at the last Palace fixture, one can afford to feel proud...

Book Synopsis Unnatural Selection by : Katrina van Grouw
Download or read book Unnatural Selection written by Katrina van Grouw and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-31 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lavishly illustrated look at how evolution plays out in selective breeding Unnatural Selection is a stunningly illustrated book about selective breeding--the ongoing transformation of animals at the hand of man. More important, it's a book about selective breeding on a far, far grander scale—a scale that encompasses all life on Earth. We'd call it evolution. A unique fusion of art, science, and history, this book celebrates the 150th anniversary of Charles Darwin's monumental work The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication, and is intended as a tribute to what Darwin might have achieved had he possessed that elusive missing piece to the evolutionary puzzle—the knowledge of how individual traits are passed from one generation to the next. With the benefit of a century and a half of hindsight, Katrina van Grouw explains evolution by building on the analogy that Darwin himself used—comparing the selective breeding process with natural selection in the wild, and, like Darwin, featuring a multitude of fascinating examples. This is more than just a book about pets and livestock, however. The revelation of Unnatural Selection is that identical traits can occur in all animals, wild and domesticated, and both are governed by the same evolutionary principles. As van Grouw shows, animals are plastic things, constantly changing. In wild animals the changes are usually too slow to see—species appear to stay the same. When it comes to domesticated animals, however, change happens fast, making them the perfect model of evolution in action. Suitable for the lay reader and student, as well as the more seasoned biologist, and featuring more than four hundred breathtaking illustrations of living animals, skeletons, and historical specimens, Unnatural Selection will be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in natural history and the history of evolutionary thinking.
Book Synopsis A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching by : Rosemary Mosco
Download or read book A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching written by Rosemary Mosco and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part field guide, part history, part ornithology primer, and altogether fun. Fact: Pigeons are amazing, and until recently, humans adored them. We’ve kept them as pets, held pigeon beauty contests, raced them, used them to carry messages over battlefields, harvested their poop to fertilize our crops—and cooked them in gourmet dishes. Now, with The Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching, readers can rediscover the wonder. Equal parts illustrated field guide and quirky history, it covers behavior: Why they coo; how they flock; how they preen, kiss, and mate (monogamously); and how they raise their young (on chunky pigeon milk). Anatomy and identification, from Birmingham Roller to the American Giant Runt to the Scandaroon. Birder issues, like what to do if you find a baby pigeon stranded in the park. And our lively shared story together, including all the things we’ve taught them—Ping-Pong, for example. “Rats with wings?” Think again. Pigeons coo, peck and nest all over the world, yet most of us treat them with indifference or disdain. So Rosemary Mosco, a bird-lover, science communicator, writer, and cartoonist (and co-author of The Atlas Obscura Explorer’s Guide for the World’s Most Adventurous Kid) is here to give the pigeon's image a makeover, and to help every town- and city-dweller get closer to nature by discovering the joys of birding through pigeon-watching.
