Glassfeather Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 These photographs above illustrate the American type of West of England Tumbler. The Breed's full name is the West of England Flying Tumbler, and they are affectionately known as WEFTS. I had a pair of these, years ago, red cock, yellow hen, beautiful birds, yes they could fly, and yes they could tumble. The Americans have made various crosses for exhibition purposes. As Gangster said, Andy Lowe probably had some of the finest Wests here in the UK. Try this UK site : http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/tudorlofts/index.jhtml and these are some examples of Wests on the UK show scene:
