DOVEScot Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 you might see some indian fantails at blackpool mick, but dont think there will be any other fantail breeds on show. The exhibition fantails were not there as the NPA and the Fantail Club had differences, even the Indians were a poor turnout :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TAMMY_1 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 most fancy breeds will be there, I think its in the Spanish room. yep that is where it is Phil and wish it was better signed because I know a lot of folk miss it because they just pass the staircase, but I think they were going to put a better sign up as you approach the staircase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDCHEQHEN Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I really enjoyed looking at the fancy pigeons last year - and spent a few hours in the room - to be honest they were a lot more interesting than the race birds down stairs. Also there were a lot more people around who explained things to you (a friendly lot) plus a program for the classes which made it easier to follow as well - there were birds for sale at very reasonable prices (well - I mean cheap !)

Guest Freebird Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 most fancy breeds will be there, I think its in the Spanish room. Probably a stupid question but is the Spanish room for Spanish breeds or is it just called the Spanish room? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
