Spanish Figurita

[Wiley]

Anyone know a breeder of these? My 4 year old boy is showing a great interest in pigeons, and I knew when I was younger fancy birds bought for me by my dad got me hooked at a similar age. I think he would fall in love with them, ideally I think a couple of matched pairs would be ideal.

Cheers Andy, I saw them at Blackpool, if I wasn't taking back two boxes I would have purchased them then. Do you know if people show the Figuritas? They'd be an ideal breed for him I feel because of there small stature.

Hi Wiley, if you can't find any figuritas look out for Portuguese Tumblers, they're the same size as the figuritas but do the odd tumble or roll when flying, thought the lad might like that!

i dont honestly know Ryan , although would assume so .you should have taken them with you , left the stock pair with me (on loan) until next Blackpool

theres another breed to look out for suggested by Lee , might have more luck with them maybe ? we have some tumblers here and are very small in the hand , Alfie would cope well with them ,they could be a stop-gap until you do find what your looking for ?

There was a big boom of fanciers with the Figuritas a couple of years back in the north east. I'm sure someone can direct me the right way, I've emailed Tammy and the BHW. There's a few fancy men on here that might see this post and they may know a contact or source to direct me too.
