The sport of racing pigeons, over the years have changed so much. Crazy money people say, with different types of racing. But is it still racing pigeons?

As Spock said to Cp Kirk. 'Jim, it's pigeon racing but not as we know it'. Their way of racing would not ever catch on here in Europe. Huge numbers doesn't always equate to Competitive racing. I'll bet not many races involve nominating a bird

The fact the Chinese STILL buy from Europe, shows they still think our birds are better than their own.
I'll be surprised if they ever start selling these 'superior' birds back to fanciers in Europe.

I think its all prestige myself with the buyers in Asia, they will never get their returns. But they can say they own the richest bird in the world.
