Breeders cards in the Feathered World or try contacting the NPA secretary.

 

It is the wrong time of the year really.If you go to some of the shows and get to know fanciers you will have a better chance of getting quality birds.

If you plan to show the birds at shows, i would contact the NPA secretary Graham Giddings.

Ask Graham for the breed club deatils, contact them and ask them for the top breeders details of the colours that you want.

 

Generally breeders don't show/sell birds until winter, this gives the new youngsters a chance to malt and develop. After this stage they sell the ones they don't want.

 

If you pm / post the what colours you want and age of each breed, i'm planning to attend a private lawn show hosted by Nottingham Pigeon Fanciers Club this weekend. I will ask who is breeding the best with your chosen colour.

 

Or if you prefer ask for low show quality birds if you are looking to keep them as pets.
