Whats the difference between Tumblers & Rollers?

[Guest Freebird]

but still Not pure bred PIGEONS, which was what the statement implied unless you go back to the Rock Dove. Pure ABC maybe, I wont disagree with that, but no such thing as a pure this strain or that strain, as people try to lead us to believe.

Spot on.

tumblers don't roll forward, they do short backward flips.  Rollers roll backwards down to the ground.

The more I read these posts the more I realise the amount of people who do not have a clue about Rollers and Tumblers, what Mr Freebird has said about Tumblers is wrong, around the Birmingham area not so many years ago there were roller clubs which would fly these Tumblers which I might add were only found around this area, and probably why you are confused, if you were to see a good  kit of Tumblers from around the Birmingham area in a competition they would take your breath away to the extent that you would want to get rid of your rollers and buy a kit of these.

Due to the popularity of these birds and the amount of stealing of kits of good birds that have been stolen, the sport of Tumbler flying around this area has been decimated, but believe me these birds were a wonderful site to see.

Black Badge ,i agree and could not have put it better ,a good kit of tumblers outshine the rollers everytime.

As I said in my previous post some people don't have a clue about Tumbler's, and as your name states (MIKKEY) I think you are taking it, it is difficult teaching the uneducated.

There are many different breeds of Tumblers, from all over the world, which are bred specifically to "tumble" and not "roll" that will have no historical connection to Rollers.
