Origin: The Syrian Turbiteen, or Barbarisi was imported to the United States by Sam Shadeed of Jacksonville, North Carolina from Damascus, Syria in 1954. Its name “Barbarisi” is an Egyptian word raising the inference that the breed was imported to Syria from Egypt.
Description: It is a flying breed in Syria.
Size: Small, average weight about ll 0unces.
Ornaments: It is plain-headed and clean-legged and has a well-developped neck frill. Its beak is stout and fairly short.
Colors: Black, blue, red, yellow and some stenciled. It is of Turbitten pattern: its body plumage is white with colored wing shields, frontal spot and cheek markings. The head markings vary in different birds which is natural since they are bred for flying not for color.
Comment: The breed is still rare in the United States.
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. A dry house with the inside protected from rain or snow.
1. Separate houses for mated pairs and odd birds.
2. A flypen, if the breed requires one that dries out easily.
3. A suitable feed ration protected from contamination.
4. A suitable mineral ration protected from contamination.
5. Water suitable for human consumption protected from contamination.
6. Suitable nesting materials.
If any one of the seven is neglected, trouble of some sort will eventually occur.
