Lahore/Siras

 Lahore/siras pigeons are known for their gentle nature.This breed was grown in Lahore and then exported to Germany.In old ages this pigeon was grown mainly for their meat,but now it is a fancy bird.Its ornamental beauty makes it as one of the favourite breed for fanciers.
   Lahore or siras is a large pigeon.Its markings are also unusual- the base color is white, with a secondary color beginning at the junction of beak and wattle and spreading in an arc over the eyes and across the back and wings. The rump and tail are to white.Lahore can be seen in different colors.Lots of cares must be taken during breeding season.The diseases from parents may affect the embryo.so make sure the parental diseases are treated before the mating season starts.

  Fantails and siras are common breeds for a starter fancier in Kerala.Other fancy breeds are also present with fanciers but not this much popular for a starter.
