Fantails

  Fantails are beautiful variety of fancy pigeons.Its one of my favorite pet bird.The definition of Fantail is"Pigeons having a rounded Fan-type tail". It has a slender neck, small head and a beautiful fan shaped tail.It has a high uprightly carried chest.they are mainly seen as in white colors and other colors also seen.
   They can be easily grown in our lofts without extra care that most of the other species require,but minimum care like clean water,healthy nest,essential foods are must.i will explain in details about the cares that should be provided while we grow fancy pigeons in another post.
    It will be very good if we can buy a one year old fantails as a starter.we can also buy two small babies and grow them,but it is not recommended to buy old fantails as it is not profitable.Making good connections with local fanciers will help a lot to get a good ,locally adapted breeding set .I will post the available stocks in my hand in another post where you can find good quality fantails pairs.
  There are lots of videos available in YouTube regarding training of fantails.One of such video i found interesting is this video click here.To know about other types of fancy pigeons,go to this page-different varieties of fancy pigeons. commonly recognized pigeon standards helps to recognize quality pigeons.
