Jan Janssen, talking about his breed: The Lille Pouter In 1990, I switched to a breed that was hardly kept
by anyone at that time, the Lille Pouter and I still keep these. It is a
breed which is very good to keep; the pigeons are quiet and can be kept in an
aviary. It is also a breed that is very well suited for free flying. By : Peter Goossens (NL) 12 pages - 815 kB

The Lille Pouter, by the French Boulant
Lillois Club To me, the slow decline of participation of the Lille Pouter in
the shows, is very disappointing. However, the same happens with other
clubs. The fanciers are aging, me too, thereby we ascertain a decline in
new members. That is the trend of the moment. I hope this call will change
that. By : Jules Devos (F) 7 pages - 870 kB

75 Year’s Jubilee of the German Specialty club for Starling Pigeons During the 27th European show the Starling Pigeon
Club celebrated its 75th anniversary. The political separation
time between East and West had no impact on the Starling breeding. But
after the unification many new friendships were created, which can only
benefit the breed. Of the 54 recognized colours,
about 30 colours were present at this show. By : Robert Hoornstra (NL) 8 pages - 1.1 MB

NORTH HOLLAND BLUE Although the official name of this
breed is ‘North Holland Fowl’, most breeders - and even the Speciality Club
- stick to the original name North Holland Blue. It is the only meat type
breed of Dutch origin, created at the beginning of the 20th century by farmers
and workmen in the Zaan district and Waterland re-gion. By : Elly Vogelaar (NL) 13 pages - 1 MB

CONCERNING POULTRY ~ Breeding Galliformes
~ Some gallinaceous birds, such as
turkeys, quail, grouse, peafowl, pheasant and jungle fowl, breed readily in capti-vity while others rarely
reproduce. Breeding failures are an indication that the birds are not
happy or healthy, and that the natural conditions of the bird are not being
sufficiently simulated. By
