Right Lads and Lasses, just to put you all on the right path.

 

Indian Fantails are medium in size with large tails and muffs on there legs.

Exhibition Fantail, are smaller bodied, have thweir heads down behind there chests with large tails and are clean legged.

Garden Fantails are free flying with scalloped tails, usually seen around Dovcotes and only come in White, anything else is a Xbreed.

YES !! i knew it!! garden fans are like the wild ones with out the fanned tail, i always though that till people started to confuse me  : though its easy done

hi sam

 

erm i dont have anything now but ill keep u in mind

[THE FIFER]

I THINK U WILL FIND GARDEN FANTAILS COME IN ALL COLOURS,

[Guest beautyhomer]

AS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY POSTED,THE STANDARD ONLY ALLOWS FOR WHITE.ANY OTHER COLOURS ARE POOR QUALITY/CROSS BRED EXHIBITIONS

[Bob]

i also agree with beautyhomer gardern fantails only cum in white any other colours are not accepted as gardern fantails

[THE FIFER]

U ARE TALKING ABOUT THE SHOW BIRDS RULES BUT THE ONES PEOPLE KEEP IN THEIR GARDENS, BLACK BLUE WHITE ARE THEY NOT GARDEN FANTAILS, ITS JUST LIKE RACING PIGEONS, RACERS AND SHOW RACERS, THE SHOW BIRDS DO NOT RACE BUT ARE STILL CALLED RACERS.

i have 4 new fantails, i was told they were indian, but one hen is (beautiful) smaller and has her head so far down her back sometimes you can only see her chest and legs, so am i right in thinking that she is an exhibition fantail ? the others have lovely fanned tails but no muffs i think they are perhaps not pure bread indians?

 

i think im starting to actually know what im doing !!!!

 

 

[Guest beautyhomer]

Yes Samantha,she sounds like an exhibition fantail.The others are more than likely the poor quality fantails that fifer refers to as garden fantails.These would be better described as pet fantails.

[Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS]

well done andrew

[Guest Paulo]

Samantha, those are two bonny fantails really nice birds.

[samantha]

thanks andrew, i think pet fantails is a perfect name for them, like it!

 

Paulo i have some much prettier ones now however the moult has hit them hard so ill put some pics up when they are looking good again

[Guest Paulo]

Nice one hope they get through the moult soon. Its the same with mine I've got a loft full of feathers at the minute I could go into the duvet filling industry

[samantha]

yes that thought crossed my mind a few weeks ago, would make lovely comfy pillows !

hi sam this year the npa will be holding there main show in conjunction with the show of the year and you can see hundreds of fantails there, indian(which have a bit of a tuft on there neck) exibition,and i presume garden f?tails will be there.

[Guest beautyhomer]

The NPA show at Blackpool is their only show and it is the first time that they have run their own show.
