all depends mate some people pigeons are all through the moult,all my old pigeons and natural birds are through the moult just waiting for the darkness young birds to chuck there last flight out mind you im only waiting on a couple to do so
i dunno i suppose but i dont think there would be any or many about but if money was no option i would buy a son or daughter of Henry Gonsalves Ben Johnson pigeon and a Son or daughter with Frank Taskers 'Filmstar' if not as close as i could get
yea mate you done the right thing by pulling the flight.I had a friend who cut down one of his pigeons and he done it like the do in some cage birds cut across the feathers this broke the blood quil and masses of blood kept pouring out of the quil as blood quils contain an artery and a vein with a circulating supply of blood running through the quill.But pulling the feather is the only option
