Hi GuruPrasad:

Nice to know you. I have some friends who too had to give their birds to other "friends" but never got back :( .Banglore is a good place for tumblers I guess. There are tons of tumbler fanciers in Banglore. I too have some pigeon friends in Banglore. Please keep in touch.

Sarfaraz here from Hyderabad, I am looking for best Guldar birds of bangalore. If anybody has these breed please contact me on my cell#:88971-93907.

The Guldar birds which I am looking for should have the following features.
-> Should have pearl eyes(white/pink)
->Should be a high flier
->Should have close vent bones
->Should not have deep keel bone
->Should fly atleast for 5 hours on empty stomach after settling them.
->Should not rake.
->Preferably a linebred pair. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR CULLED PIGEONS.
->Owner should be having good knowledge of pigeons,especially the flying breeds and should not give birds with the intention of "selling culled birds".

Hi Sarfaraz:

That is a set of "tough" requirements :) . I have got few good guldhar birds but Iam yet to breed them and fly. Also I dont sell birds. The preference here in Chennai is different than Banglore when in comes to tumblers. We prefer good tumbling (tumbling with vertical upward movement) than long hours of flight in tumblers. Where as in Banglore, the preference is for long hours of flight.
