PEARL OF DENMARK  

 

APPEARANCE 

The Danish Tumbler is an elegant, slender and rather strong  pigeon with a highly carried, full breast. The form of the head has a regular evenly curved line. The forehead is long and filled; has no breaking or contracting at the root of the beak. The beak is long, cone shaped and has a bright, lightly rose-pink colour. The eyes must lie in the middle of the head, be large, bright and vivacious with a milky white iris and a very little circular pupil. The eye ceres are narrow and lively red. The neck is long with a well undercut throat, the breast relatively broad. The back is suitable broad-shouldered and in parade position sloping downwards the floor, wings tight fitted and the tail shall be narrow and short. The legs are relatively long and slightly bent in the heel.

COLOURS and MARKINGS:  

 

There are about 56 different colours and markings being bred at the moment. The colours must be deep with metallic lustre on neck and breast

 

BREEDING:  

The Danish Tumbler is simply to keep, has excellent breeding qualities, will enjoy a free fly out and his needs are little. It is mainly bred in Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and France.

 

Through modernisation in the last 90 years, the Danish Tumbler has become a very elegant show bird
