What breed are my pigeons?

[elsfieldchickens]

I bought these a few days ago and was wondering what breed they are

Look like "sky cutters" i had. they flew real high fast and long, clapping wings especially when dived/swooped that they did a lot. great birds that stayed in air for hours zooming along on wing hardly flapping like foam air plains. they have decent homing instincts so you may want to settle them for month training to come to sound for food, not feeding day of or before release them to fly, so they won't just circle your place all day or night.

That colouration appears in many breeds of pigeons. I do not know how one can isolate exactly what breed of pigeon you own.

Thanks for your help! At first I thought they were iranian high flyer pigeons

 

[laughingdog]

Sky cutters are iranian high flier type i think. color pattern eye etc part, but was going by body shape etc. Mine had variable amounts of grouse feathering on shanks and feet.

The pattern is lovely. Enjoy!

some of them are rollers, im pretty sure of that, others could be high flyers, or tipplers,, Nice looking birds.. an he has no idea what he had.. ?? Some look to me like they might be hybrids

he started of with a mixed pigeon he found so some might be mixes and he bought others but cant remember the breeds.
