Factoring Genetics into Racing Pigeon Breeding Learning and understanding the genetics of racing pigeons is crucial to the successful breeding of the birds. There are genetic traits that you know desire and need to introduce to the gene pool of your loft. Every pigeon regardless of appearance is one of 3 bases underneath. In order of least to most dominate: Brown, Blue, Ash red. (Click Show more')Here is the.

Basic Pigeon Genetic Information with photos of rare colored homing pigeons.

Hi: My name is Ronald Huntley. I’m both a lover of pigeons and an amateur genetic nut. I wanted to understand why some pigeons are one color while others are so different. In the process of learning the answer to this puzzle, I read pigeon books, pamphlets, made phone calls and yes I did send tons of e-mails searching out the answer to my questions. In so doing, it became obvious to me that good clear color photos with accompanying information were needed to aid in the description process. At about the same time my lovely wife Patricia gave me a digital camera. With camera in hand, I was off to the pigeon loft where I begin taking photos to go along with the information I was complying. I decided not to make a private journal but rather to display it here on the web so others, like you, could also benefit from it. This gave me three more hobbies to pursue; photography, website design and genetics. You could say this website is my book report on pigeon genetics. Just putting it together has helped me to understand this subject more fully. I hope you too will find it just as helpful and interesting. For me, it’s an ongoing project; so stay tuned. This website will grow slowly but grow it will. I hope you find it to your satisfaction. Now before I begin, I want to thank all the genetic researchers for their keen insight and hard work in documenting their many studies and findings. Their untiring efforts have made it possible for a layperson like me to share in this knowledge. I want to thank the late Dr. Willard F. Hollander for his lifetime of dedicated genetic research; for his many books and articles published; and for personally taking the time to answer my phone calls, letters and emails. Doc, as his admirers so affectionately called him, passed away in January 2004 at the age of 90. All that knew, respected and loved him will now miss him. I feel honored to have been able to introduce my Grandson Michael to such a giant pigeon legend as Doc. I also wish to thank my friend Dr. Lester Paul Gibson for his excellent book. His many years in editing the Pigeon Genetics, News, Views, & Comments news letter. For his tireless efforts in answering mine and so many other’s pigeon genetic questions and emails.

To the late Joseph W. Quinn for his many observations, books, CD’s volumes of research data and personnel time so freely given. To his lovely wife Mary for allowing Joe to spend time chewing the fat with so many of us pigeon nuts. Joe is truly missed by all who’s lives he touched and he touched so many both within the sport of pigeons and elsewhere. A combat infantry officer, Korean War veteran, teacher and pigeon nut; a true legend of a man. To Paul P. Cook, Jr. for his book Genetics Made Simple. To Bob Mangile for his research data and pigeon genetic website. To Frank Mosca for sparking my interest in this subject through his written articles, genetic website and many emails. To Dr. Axel Sell, for his excellent book on pigeon genetics. To my friend and fellow genetic nut, Dr. Randal Herring for his generous donation of rare color homers and answers to my endless questions. Last but not least, to my good friend Tom Barnhart who started the whole ball rolling by encouraging me to start this web site project. I think Tom’s exact words to me were “Ron your killing my email in-box!!” “You need to set up a webpage for those photos so I can simply log in and see what you’re asking”. To make a long story short, I did as Tom asked and this is the result. I hope you all enjoy it. These fine gentlemen and others, conducted the long years of research needed to determine what we now know about pigeon genetics. It is from their hard work that I began to compiled these next few pages. I would encourage anyone who desires to learn more about our birds’ genetics to make an effort to obtain copies of their works.

That's my Grandpa John R Huntley on the left back in 1916 with one of his prize racing homers. I'm the guy in the center with my prize show winning hen. She won best overall flown racer in the Carolina Pigeon Club 1999 show as well as best flown old hen. My eldest Grandson Michael Bingham is on the right with his recessive red Russian Tumbler. Michael is now a Civil Engineering, P.E., from Clemson University. He is now married with two daughters, living and working in Pennsylvania. Between the three of us we make 100 plus years of pigeon flying, handling and showing. It skips every other generation. I think that's kind of neat. My other two grandsons Cory and Jake also like pigeons when they were kids but they live in an area where they sadly could not keep them. So just to make sure they don't miss out on all the fun I always save some of the loft cleaning duties just for them.

Dr. Willard. F. Hollander always tried to make his pigeon genetics material as inexpensive and as available as possible. In that spirit his son Paul Hollander has placed a pdf file of his NPA Information Booklet #1, Project on Genetics on the net for all to read or downolad.

If you don’t guess the exact words it wants, you can beat your head against a dictionary trying to figure out that the word is “acer”, not “aces”, for instance. (And spellcheck just changed “acer” to “average”, so another indicator of being slightly out of sync.) Also, not all of the extra words get counted.There are a lot of other word games out there that challenge without frustration. Mousemom, FrustratingI love word games, I really do. Anagrams game pigeon cheat. This one - not so much.

During his life, Dr. Hollander, also known as Doc in our pigeon world, was involved in many pigeon related issues and or projects. One such project was serving as the first editor for “The Pigeon Genetics News Letter” beginning with issue #1 dated January 1957 through issue # 40 dated October 1966. Doc loved to teach and especially he loved teaching and explaining pigeon genetics. What follows are transcribed copies of the original issues with only personal addresses and outdated references omitted. These transcribed copies are made available thanks to the hard work of Dr. Richard Cryberg who took the pains taking steps to reconstruct them from print into computer text. They are all here for interested viewers to study or copy. I have grouped them into sets of ten issues per web page. There is a short forward written by Dr. Cryberg followed by an index of topics for the entire set of 40 issues. I hope you find them as interesting as I have. I would also like to thank Dr. Cryberg for making this possible. It goes without saying that we also owe our beloved late friend Dr. Hollander our deepest gratitude for his life's work in genetics and pigeons.

Thank you Doc, may your legacy and words of knowledge live on.

Disclaimer: I have no formal training in the area of genetics so I’m by no means an expert. However, I do read as much published genetic information on pigeons as I can find and I take pleasure in discussing it with others who are more knowledgeable than I. In addition, I observe carefully what I’ve seen in my birds and it's these observations and some conclusions along with what I've learned from others that I share with you, here on this site. It’s done in hopes that it will aid you to both understand and put genetics to good use in your loft.
