Origin: The Saint Pigeon is a new breed in
the process of development. In 1958 H. P. Macklin, if Pine Lawn, Missouri,
crossed the Mane and a Moorhead Tumbler. When his crosses were seven-eighths
Mane and one-eighths Moorhead Tumbler, they were crossed with a white Jacobin.
Youngsters were retained with white eyes and beak, medium face and feather
ornaments of the desired form the length. These are now becoming stabilized.
Description: An exhibition bird only
Size: Small, Average weight 11 ounces but appears larger due to length and looseness of feather.
Ornaments: Medium muffs desired two or three inches, large shell crest, well developed mane, prominent ruff or collar feathers meeting on upper breast.
Colors: Self white, white eyes and white beak.
Comments: The Saint well illustrates any new breed in the making. It has not been fully stabilized nor has it been standardized. When these two are accom-fancier. If the breed is liked and breed by others, its future is assured. If only a few accept it, the breed may pass into oblivion even though admitted as a standard one.
Seven steps must follows for Pigeon growing: The requirements for pigeon breeding are simple, but they must be followed to be successful.
There should be no relaxing or neglect at any time, for it is much easier to prevent trouble than to eliminate disease, parasites or vermin once these have occurred.
1. A dry house with the inside protected from rain or snow.
2. Separate houses for mated pairs and odd birds.
3. A flypen, if the breed requires one that dries out easily.
4. A suitable feed ration protected from contamination.
5. A suitable mineral ration protected from contamination.
6. Water suitable for human consumption protected from contamination.
7. Suitable nesting materials.
If any one of the seven is neglected, trouble of some sort will eventually occur.
