I have german modenas. are there any major differences of the GM from modenas? And also if you might know, what are the differences of the those from the king?

 

Thanks,

Someone died so you wouldn't have to, have you said thank you?

THE GERMAN  MODENA IS ABOUT HALF THE SIZE OR SMALLER  THAN  THE MODERN SHOW MODENA . IT IS A VERY GOOD BREEDER  AND CAN RAISE  THERE OWN AND ARE VERY PROLFIC . COME IN THE SAME COLORS  AND MARKINGS. THERE  TAIL IS  NOT LIKE SHOW BIRD MORE NORMAL  POSITION. THE KING WAS CROSSED INTO MODENAS FOR  MORE POWER WHICH INCREASED THE SIZE OF MODENAS  AND THE BREEDERS  SELECTED FOR MORE POWERFUL LOOKING BIRDS ALONG WITH THE SIZE. MODENAS WERE A FLYING BREED  USED LIKE DOMESTIC FLITES  FOR ROOF TOP FLYING AND THEIFING  .

thanks for the info, both kings and regular modenas are good breeders/feeders, right? I'm thinking about switching from GM to one of the other two breeds, bad Idea? they are really rare.

THE MODERN  SHOW KING AND  MODENA  ARE NOT GOOD BREEDERS  MOST OF THE BREEDERS  OF THEM  USE FEEDERS TO RAISE  THE YOUNG   THIS IS THE SHOW TYPE  THAT YOU SEE AT SHOWS . UTILETY  KINGS  ARE  DIFFERENT  THEY ARE  GREAT  BREEDERS
