Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Feather's Practical Pigeon Boo We all know how, by proper selection, we can, after a time, breed all the fancy qualities out of a pigeon and have nothing left, as it were, but the frame or founda tion. For instance, take the Fantail; by selecting the poorest Specimens of a flock, we can, by continued breeding, bring them down to what we call a common pigeon with twelve feathers in the tail, and as distinct in shape and action from the Fan as well can be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pigeon Book It will not be possible in a work Of this description to give descriptive matter of any great length relative to the different varieties, but they will be briefly dealt with in order that a beginner taking an interest in the breeding of pigeons may know the main points of distinction between them, likewise their points Of excellence and the most difficult features connected with their breeding. In this matter, as no man is a thorough master breeder of all the varieties, I have called to my aid several of the best-known breeders, who have been good enough to deal with some of the varieties as specialists Of these varieties. I have to thank them for the help rendered me in the compila tion of this book, adding so much to its interest. Darwin expresses the Opinion that all the varieties Of pigeons that have been domesticated trace their origin to the Blue Rock Dove (columbia Livia), and to establish this fact mentions that if any domesticated variety Of the pigeon family is allowed to run to seed without the careful selection of the fancier, distinct features of Columbia Livia are reproduced in them. In a small handbook of this description, it will not be found possible to trace the different varieties to their source, or to deal at any considerable length with the crossings that have been used by fanciers to improve or modify a variety. All manner of breeds have been used by the skilled fancier for this purpose, so cleverly in some cases as to leave little or no trace of their use, but I am convinced that there is hardly a variety in existence to-day in which a cross of some other variety has not been used to beautify it - it may be in colour, shape, or marking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pigeons The proper housing of the stock is a highly important factor in successful pigeon breeding. This does not imply that the installation should be either elaborate or expensive, for, provided the quarters are hygienic, and give the birds ample protection during inclement weather, the more simple they are, the better. It is preferable that the pigeon loft should face south, in order that it may receive the maximum of sunlight, and at the same time be protected from northerly winds. Experience has prov-cd that a small pigeon loft, as a complement to the poultry yard, is really the most advantageous form of accommodation. Under these conditions the work is comparatively easy to supervise, and does not necessitate disproportionate care or attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pigeon Raising Princes, poets, prelates, judges, and ladies of high degree have been in the ranks of the pigeon fancier during ages past, for pigeon fancy antedates the Christian era, and we have record that they took keen pleasure in their pigeon lofts and the company of their birds. The results these great people accomplished appear marvelous when we examine the various breeds that have sprung, as Darwin assures us, from the parent stock of the rock-pigeon, or Wild pigeon, of Europe and North Africa. It was love for their birds that enabled them to accomplish these results, that gave them the patience to persevere through discouragements. Gentleness, kindness, and patience are the first requisites for the pigeon raiser to possess, coupled with a clear, methodical business head.

Are they not in comparably beautiful, as they tessellate the earth with a wealth of colour and cunning diversity of design A plainer vesture might have answered every material purpose of the flower's creation. There was no necessity for that blaze of colour if its only office was to feed the cattle or manure the soil. A common garment would have done for these common purposes. But because it was an ordained minister of God to appeal to the higher faculties of man, and bear its royal witness to the King of human hearts and lives, therefore was it clothed with a courtier's robes, and decked with the honours of heaven's am bassador.
