have the impression that the pigeons are very large, and the Janssen pigeon breed that many fanciers are familiar with has such a characteristic. In fact, there are a lot of pigeons in foreign blood, whether they are blood or pure, and there are many pigeons with big waists. So is it all like this? Are foreign pigeons big? When choosing pigeons, do you also choose big pigeons?
is actually not. Nowadays, many pigeon fanciers have very big pigeons, but there are also many pigeons whose pigeons are not very big. On the contrary, there will be more pigeons of medium size. You can see that many prize-winning pigeons don’t actually use the hands of the owner to catch them. One-handed catch is enough.
So why are Jansen's pigeons so big? In fact, you can pay attention to the fact that there are indeed many breeding pigeons in the Janssen pigeon family that are not small, but there are also many pigeons that are not very big. Here is a question of breeding, the effect of body shape. It is not difficult for large-sized pigeons to produce small and medium-sized pigeons, but there is basically no way for small-sized pigeons to produce large-sized pigeons. In addition, the offspring pigeons will become smaller in the offspring.
When breeding, the body shape will have some influence. When we choose pigeons, we will also tend to choose some large and excellent racing pigeons for breeding. Basically, the pigeons reserved for breeding are pigeons of medium size and above. . Basically, small pigeons are not selected for breeding. Mainly for breeding.
is therefore not a big pigeon, nor is a big pigeon a good pigeon. But when breeding, especially when you like to pair pigeons with close relatives, the effect of body size still needs to be paid more attention.
