The Exhibition Homer is a varietal originating from the UK, and is known to be developed since the 1900s. The variety classified into this type of utility form pigeons is known for having great flying ability, and it is very popular among breeders and fanciers. Now these varieties have been found to be cultivated in many countries, and are also increasingly developed for appearance.
The Exhibition Homer for Breeding, is a very peaceful and calm Bird and each pair can with ease breed 4 to 6 young in a season, provided the breeding birds have the necessary condition.
Those who decide on Exhibition Homers as a Breed will never be disappointed; the Breed is extremely vital, has good homing and parenting abilities. They are equally at home in free flight or in a large aviary/flight.
Those who wish to breed Exhibition Homers will not be disappointed in the number and quality of Birds on offer in this Homer Breed, you must however have an ‘Eye’ for a Good animal, as with any Breed, there are also enough sub quality animals to be found.You should read all the relevant Literature available to have a good background knowledge of the Breed, then set yourself achievable Goals and avoid the tendency to value Birds higher than their true worth and minimise any errors you may make.
Anyone who has read about Homer Pigeon Breeds in the last 15 years must admit that the Exhibition Homer has not only made great advances in Breed Type but also has become very popular and widespread with many Breeders and Fanciers. This is primary due to the Breeds Beauty but also to the dedicated Breeders and the idealistic breeding programmes followed and not lastly to the Judges that have correctly assessed the breed without pandering to personal agenda of either themselves or individual breeders.
If you wish to write a History of the Exhibition Homer Breed, you would need to mention many outstanding Fanciers, with many cross breeding and many failed attempts to bring about a stabile Breed in the UK at the Turn of the 1900’s by British Fanciers, but I will try to avoid that here. However here we should confirm the exceptional Art of the English Breeders of that time, who created a Masterwork with this Breed. We come now to what is demanded of a Breed Typical Exhibition Homer; first and foremost it is a Form Pigeon, so first, leaving aside the unusual and distinctive Head properties, an overall Balanced Exhibition Homer should resemble a powerfully built Racing Pigeon, with however a more markedly elevated Stance. The Feature however the Creators of this Breed altered the most is the uniquely shaped Head that is the main focus of assessment and calls for all the skill any Breeder may possess.
