Re: for Andy

I would say that would be more of a racer than breeder. The pupil does appear a bit elongated but I think that is because of the appearance of the inner circle. The inner circle is quite wide with heavy serrations and shading between 4&9. It would want to go with an eye that has a more defined i...

Re: eye photos on my own

That’s ok George. It’s interesting seeing them and hope by putting a comment on how view it may help some. What you need for taking good pictures of eyes is a bright light where you are taking it. This means that the pupil will already be dilated before taking the photo so getting the best overall p...

Re: eye photos on my own

The violet eye is the better eye. The inner circle is nice and deep and wide, full of dark shading. The circle of colouration can be seen much better in this eye. It has plenty of graining. The iris has plenty of room in it. A much better breeding eye.

Re: eye photos on my own

The flash in a camera wouldn’t be any good for taking eye photos. The pupil of the pigeons wouldn’t react quick enough. That is another very full iris. The inner circle is good but you can’t see much of the circle of colouration due to the iris being so full.

They do seem to have accepted Banjo well. The wire frame looks good.

Re: Club meeting /AGM

I agree, Andy, that 35 miles races are not much use to healthy pigeons that fly that far having a bit of a lap around in the morning. Even 120 miles is not much use once you get them over the channel. The only thing is it would be education for them being marked, going in the transporter, etc. Proc...

They need to be careful going in that pond with the piranhas :D :lol:
