My pairs seem to be similar although the parlor rollers are a little more chubby the taller parlor rollers.

Laughingdog- with parlor rollers it's best to look a video up on youtube you have to see what they do. I want a few that just roll a short distance for my own enjoyment. I can't have birds where I'm living now though so I'm out of luck for right now.

ive seen some parlor roller videos, and very few up parlor tumbler videos, and preferring tumblers, ive only heard of three local for sale, and someone else everyone says they dont get back to. tumblers id like them to back flip at least a few times and then do again and land on feet. i liked some culls of the rollers, but thinking id prefer greatly the tumblers..

Money- But last week I found a couple that will let me keep birds at their place right outside town, now I just have to get some things fixed up and start saving some money

. I mainly want to trade ferals and raise coturnix quail but other pigeon, fancy bobwhite, and bantys are deffinatly in my future.

trade ferals?

Catch and sell/ trade feral pigeons to guys who train bird dogs. They bring about $2 each.

I found out that my local market on those shooter/feral pigeons bottomed out (to many people selling them.) just fyi. I did get a breeder pen drawn up and materials list made. As soon as I get it built I'll start buying pigeons. If any body knows any Parlor roller/tumble breeders in eastern kansas, SE neb., nw/ Mo. that they wouldn't mind hooking me up with that'd be great, I'm also looking for runts. I'm on a bit of a tight budget, I'd like to find them for under $50 for a 2-3 yo pair but might go 60 if I really like them.
