Not end but beautiful pigeons. End doves - my soul. Video "Nikolaev end pigeons"

elegant end pigeons took a special place in the hearts of breeders. The breed owes its name to the flight style used by the birds. Individuals are distinguished by long feathers, which simply flutter in the wind with incredible beauty while hovering in the air. This article will describe the history of the appearance of the species and characteristics these birds, as well as some Interesting Facts regarding the development of the group.

The first mention of the breed

The homeland of birds is the expanses of Ukraine, the first end pigeons appeared in the city of Nikolaev, based on this, they were called Nikolaev. Birds descended from several ancient ancestors at once, which were brought by travelers from all over the world in the 17th-18th centuries.

You can observe this technique with wind up to 7-8 m per second. Air currents prevent the bird from gaining altitude, and then the dove flies end-on, maintaining the position with its wings and tail. This is how birds of prey “float” through the air.

It was only in 1956 that end flight was a distinctive feature of a particular species of pigeon.

At this time, the Nikolaev pigeon breeders sold birds throughout the Soviet Union, but the butt pigeons were especially valued in Germany, Hungary and Poland. In the early 80s, the demand for birds far exceeded the supply, so the breeders engaged in commercial breeding. This period was a turning point for the breed, because hybrids began to appear that were very different from the first representatives of the species.

Later, another variety of butt pigeons was officially recognized - Kirovograd. They are much more compact than the known ancestors, but they are in no way inferior to them in terms of the beauty of their appearance.

After the recognition of two varieties in the group at once, end pigeons became insanely popular. Throughout the expanses of Ukraine, birds began to be bred in almost all cities. That is why some breeders believe that purebred individuals are almost impossible to find today.

Born by the sea

Nikolaev box pigeons are considered the standard of the variety. Birds rise high into the sky and can stay in flight for up to 7 hours. Feathers look like this:

• a long rounded head is complemented by a narrow forehead;
• bright eyes of golden or golden color;
• body length varies from 38 to 40 cm;
• slightly curved beak;
• wide tail with lush stiff plumage.

The color of individuals can be the most diverse: white, red, gray or yellow. The most important distinguishing feature of the variety is flight. All the ends quickly rise up and sharply descend strictly at an angle of 90 degrees. The flight "butterfly" or the sickle type of fluttering is in no way connected with the Nikolaev and Kirovograd birds. Therefore, individuals equipped with such qualities can only be visually similar to the end ones, but still they are just hybrids.

The Nikolaev box pigeons were bred in sea areas where strong winds are observed, so they fly well even in bad weather. At the same time, at the dawn of the 1990s, breeders were chasing more profit from the sale of birds, so they rarely released individuals and kept them in enclosures more and more. Perhaps that is why today's rare representatives of the breed have practically lost their flight properties and can spend no more than 2-3 hours in the air.

Kirovograd birds

Many breeders claim that today, even in the city of Nikolaev, there are almost no true representatives of butt pigeons, so we advise you to be attentive to any offers for the sale of such individuals.

And if you have witnessed an incredibly beautiful flight of end pigeons, be sure to convey your impressions in the comments.

IN Lately A lot of controversy and controversy occurs around this notion of side-to-side flight. Some pigeon breeders say that this is a mythical phoenix bird that no one has ever seen. Others of this bird have full cages in markets and exhibitions. I would like to try to figure it out with you. What is the basis of this concept. And why is this happening. To do this, let's return to the history of the Nikolaev pigeons. Let's read the standard of 1956, which was adopted by the pigeon breeders of the city. Nikolaev. At that moment, they approved only two flight styles. This is Tortsovy and Sickle. Everything about any butterfly and lark is out of the question.

A little over 50 years have passed. After the approval of the standard and We can no longer formulate exactly what lies under this concept of side flight. Because of this, the weight of the farce goes, both in Ukraine and in Russia. Pigeon breeders begin to prove to each other that it is the ego pigeons that are truly butt.

I want to present my opinion on this unique flight style of the Nikolaevsky pigeon to you in court. I'll start again with history and my personal experience. Take the example of your city, Rubizhne, Lugansk region. Talking with the old pigeon houses, which, to our great regret, are no longer there or there are only a few left, I realized that. That pigeons were kept in almost every yard. If the kid was not engaged in pigeons. It wasn't a boy. It was an attribute of that time, as now, for example, mobile phone or camptor for youth. Pigeons in those days are a sign of authority, and the Nikolaevsky dove is just a fantasy and the dream of every dovecote! Pigeons, of course, were not praised by everyone, so they had to keep everything in a row so that they would rise into the sky. There was no need to think about the breed. This is how local breeds of pigeons were formed. They were then simply called flying pigeons. They flew high and for a long time, making circles under the underground, but when they reached a high altitude (point) they stopped and hovered at a height for hours on the spot. The authoritative pigeon breeders, who, as a rule, were richer or more agile, had purely Nikolaev pigeons, they went directly to Nikolaev for them. Who bought and who stole. In those days it was like that. The bird brought from Nikolaev was completely different, it was heaven and earth. In relation to the local bird. Both in flight and on the exterior. For these miracle pigeons, people could give everything they had. Who gave a lot of money, who is a cow, who is freedom. And who is life.

The time was such, and the people were then different. Having Nikolaev pigeons in his dovecote. They had to be brought home at night. And even keep it at home in a closet. To get the fruits before they are stolen. The flight of these pigeons was so unique that, having seen it once in a lifetime, the dovecote remembered it for life. I have seen such pigeons in my life. Kid. I caught a dove without knowing where it came from, no one was drawn by suit in the tail. The eyes are white. In a word, there is nothing to see. But as it rises into the sky better and more beautiful than all, it stood as if by a string and did not look like any of mine. Her tail and wings were visible in the sky. The head was almost invisible. We didn’t call it the end face then, but that was that flight then!

Getting a little older. This is 14-16 years old. We certainly went to Nikolaev for a miracle bird. But, alas, by the end of the eighties it was not so easy to find this bird in Nikolaev, although we went in search of them with binoculars, but no matter how much we wanted to find pigeons in the sky over Nikolaev, they had already stopped chasing them. Most likely for profit. In pursuit of a long ruble. But, in spite of everything, we still managed to bring a couple of worthy pigeons out of 20-30 pieces. Which had a unique staging of the wing and hull. But since they were boys, they drove everyone all year round. Despite any merit of their pigeons. Why am I telling you all this, to the fact that the percentage of purely Nikolaev pigeons, using the example of our city, shows that they were both in one city and in the whole of Ukraine. Not forgetting that pigeons from Nikolaev were taken out in batches not only to Ukraine, but throughout the Soviet Union, and not really, these pigeons also went abroad to Germany, Poland and many other countries. Already in the 80s, there were practically no end birds left in Nikolaev, this is already from my personal experience, and not from stories. And having gone already as an adult by the end of 2000, I completely returned empty without bringing a single one. They were completely gone in Nikolaev, both pigeons and pigeon houses that kept them.

How sad it was to see, but a fact is a fact and you can’t get away from the result.

Another 10 years have passed since I last visited Nikolaev and made sure that there was not a single Nikolaev butcher bird left, no pigeons still remained in Nikolaev, but, as a rule, sickle. And those pigeons for which I came are not in sight. The pigeon breeders of Nikolaev began to breed a fighting bird, well, yes, that's another topic, let's leave it on their conscience. Let's not go away from our topic.

As a result, what we have today. Nikolaev was left without a flying bird, not to mention the side flight.

Where this bird was born and chased is no longer there. She hasn’t been around for at least 30-40 years. What was there spread all over the world, dissolved in local breeds, and everyone went their own way, who began to seek a suit, like Kharkov and turned Nikolaev into Kharkov-Nikolaev Donetsk brought the breed of Nikolaev red-skinned, and so I can give many, many examples. You all know about it yourself and lead by examples

their cities. There were also those cities that worked not only according to suit, but also according to the style of flight, so the Melitopol, Lugansk Butterflies and many other things appeared, you all know about this too. These pigeons rise into the sky and stand without a circle, but you will no longer see that unique flight.

And how can you meet him if he was a drop in a large number of doves. This drop, after the expiration of time, dissolved without leaving a trace. And if we add to this the fashion for a sickle style of flight and new sores of pigeons that arose not so long ago, then the picture becomes even more deplorable.

In the end, what do we have today? Today, there is practically no pure old Nikolaev bird anywhere. As well as this unique flight, about which there is so much controversy now. What do we have today and at least a small part of what was left? In my opinion, only elements of that unique flight remained. We see this in our pigeons when we raise them into the sky. As you can see. Everyone who drives the bird knows and sees. That a dove in the sky does not always wave in the same way, from time to time its flight changes radically, I note that not all pigeons have this. Some pigeons in flight, according to certain conditions and the strength of the wind, rebuild their flight, tip over on their tail, while the wing works completely differently, the wing angle changes and from the bottom we saw how our pigeons become handsome, fully reveal what they are capable of, they just seem balls, this happens when they are exactly above the dovecote, strictly above our heads. This effect my old friend called the flight of a roly-poly. This is when pigeons in the wind lie horizontally on the ground in the wind, and when the wind subsides, they have nothing left to do but go into vertical flight so as not to pass the dovecote. At the same time, they sit down or sit down on the tail, their body is located perpendicular to the ground, as a result, the wing angle changes, but we cannot see this. since we are under the pigeons, they are above our heads. This can be seen only by being at the same height with the pigeon and seeing its flight from the side.

I managed to see it only in the photo, was photographed fighting pigeon at a height of a meter from the ground in flight, at the time of somersault. This is what happens to our pigeons at altitude. For example, again from history, maybe someone remembers. How our pigeons often twirled, without popping. The pigeons sat down on the tail, the body vertically to the ground, and here nothing was needed before the somersault. Just a moment and a chicken. We removed such pigeons, although, as a rule, they were the best flyers with maximum stability.

So that's where I'm going, the butt is today an element in flight, an element of history, an element of the purebred dove. I also had such pigeons that constantly stood on the tail with the vertical position of the body, both when landing and when lifting. These were pigeons from the farm of Boris Trafimovich Grigorov. Once he gave me his old white champion of the city of Summ. He was with a spot on his head, most likely he should remember him. These pigeons are not forgotten! So from under it, my dove showed a five-hour flight to the butt position. But then again, she was alone, and as a kid I couldn’t help but drive both her and everyone else to that moment. that I had. As a result, she stayed at night and did not sit down. And such pigeons, as you know, are practically impossible to return. Well, that's another topic. If we now manage to raise the pigeon to a height of 1-3 meters per second into the wind and at the same time keep them within 1-5 meters in a radius from the pigeon, which is indicated in the old standard of 1956, the bird will have no choice but to go to end style. No other is given.

As for today's work of pigeon breeders. We are definitely going somewhere, we can't stand still. But in what direction we are going, only time will tell. I am personally glad that this moment work is underway in clubs, both in Ukraine and in Russia. In Russia, at the moment, Belaya Kalitva, Voronezh, the regions of Siberia and Moscow are doing a lot of work in this direction. In Ukraine, a Venigorodka is working in this direction, headed by Alekseev, Sumy, Donetsk region. Khmelnitsk, Moreupol, Zaporozhye and cities and towns of Primorye.

In the end, what I wanted to say. Face flight is not like the wings of a dove in flight, it's how the body is positioned. In relation to the ground or its tail. The end face, by definition, is an angle of 90 degrees, and it must be maintained otherwise it is no longer an end face. But something else by definition. But again, this is not a standard, this is already for the most part a story, perhaps we will return to a short one, because everything in our life goes in a spiral. Well, which butt is complex or simple, this is another topic, which has already been considered before me in our Bulletin of the pigeon breeder.

We all need not prove to each other who has the better bird at the moment or who has the end bird. We need to cooperate as much and as fruitfully as possible, make friends, change and revive what was lost that was done before us. After all, there are not so many of us left, and we are obliged, having exchanged tribal material, to communicate in the spirit of friendship and mutual understanding. After all, each style in Nikolaev pigeon breeding is unique in its own way, and today the butt is a brand that they simply want to stick to the bird. At the moment, it's just fashionable and profitable. And this should not in any way divide us both in the clubs and in the camps in which we find ourselves, not of our own free will in different ones.

Monuments should be erected to such people of pigeon breeding in the city of Krasnoarmeysk, Donetsk region. Respect and understanding in their difficult life experience, work on the continuation of the family of butt pigeons: belted, solid, red, gray. What, in fact, is it about? I, the chairman of the club of the city of Krasny Luch, Luhansk region, with the pigeon breeder of our club, a respected person not only in Ukraine, but also in the countries of near and far abroad, a person with extensive experience, a breeder in breeding and keeping our old breed of Nikolaev high-flying circleless pigeons, Pavel Asingerov Mikhailovich, who has known for 30 years the hero of our article, the famous pigeon breeder of the city of Krasnoarmeysk Leonid Yakovlevich Malchenko, would like to tell you about his life path connected with pigeon breeding.
Donbass is a multinational region. During the years of the first five-year plans, when the mass development of coal deposits began, people from all over began to come to the cities. Soviet Union. In the steppes of Donbass, numerous mining villages began to appear like mushrooms after the rain. Then the family of our respected pigeon breeder L.Ya. Malchenko settled here. His father, as a 5-year-old child, moved to the Donetsk region from the Sumy region, and lived there all his hard life. In 1941 the war began. Yakov Romanovich was drafted into the ranks of the Soviet Army at the front on the first draft. All V.O.V. Yakov Romanovich fought with enemies. He was repeatedly wounded, but, after the war, despite poor health, this man continued his work as a pigeon breeder.
War, devastation, famine caused irreparable damage to our country. The pigeons were practically destroyed. Real amateurs - pigeon breeders bit by bit collected miraculously surviving specimens, tried to revive the breed. Immediately after the war, Yakov Romanovich got a very good male, who liked the old pigeon breeder Bhaiko K., who offered a pair of old and two pairs of young pigeons for a dog. The deal went through. It was difficult, and did not want to part with a four-legged friend. But love for pigeon breeders is more precious than anything in the world. With this, the difficult post-war breeding work began with the continuation of the old line of the Nikolaev breed with the end flight of pigeons. Throughout his life, the father passed on all his skills to his son - Leonid Yakovlevich Malchenko, who still continues to lead this line.
Born Malchenko L.Ya. in 1952, on September 2 in the city of Krasnoarmeysk, and gave his whole life to our pigeons. In his life he knew failures and successes, sorrows and joys. Such is the life of a pigeon breeder.
What is the line of the Nikolaev pigeons of the end flight? This is a medium-sized pigeon (although there are also elongated and compact specimens). The body is dry, the neck, as for the breed, is thin and long. When viewed, pigeons give the impression of unusual lightness and grace. The head is often dry, elongated, although there are individuals with a rounded head. The beak is dark. The eyes are large, golden-straw and pearl, the eyelids are mostly gray. The wing is long, dense, elastic, the wings are tightly pressed to the body, almost always reaching the end of the tail.
In flight, the dove must work with the whole wing, rotating it in three planes, as if twisting into the sky, holding it up, above its head. Tail of unusual width, consists of 12 - 14 feathers. In the open state, merging with the second-order flywheels, it forms a hemisphere, which creates additional windage for the pigeon and allows it to stay in the air even with a light wind. The legs are not feathered, the metatarsus is red, the claws are black. Main colors: gray, gray, red. In the air, the body of the pigeon is located at an angle of 45 degrees, the tail is bent under itself, the wing is thrown out from behind the head and is kept parallel to the body. When taking off and landing, the bird resembles a spider on a web. Talking with Malchenko L.Ya., we watched the flight of his pigeons, I was delighted. A man with great experience told me about their ancestry.
Having traveled all over Ukraine far and wide, I have never met pigeons with such an original and beautiful flight. At the end of our meeting, Leonid Yakovlevich Malchenko gave me and Asingerov P.M. as a sign of respect for the dove, and as a symbol of friendship among the pigeon breeders of the Lugansk and Donetsk regions, his book. He also presented us with discs with the flight of his favorites. We really did not want to leave and part with such a person and his pets.
A huge contribution to the improvement of the Red Army bird was made by Leonid Yakovlevich. For 45 years, the amateur breeder has experienced not only the joy of victories, but also the bitterness of losses. His pigeons are known not only in Ukraine, but also in Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus and other countries. Without exaggeration, we can say that end pigeons still exist only thanks to the efforts and diligence of such a person as Malchenko L.Ya.
At the end of my article, I want to express my gratitude: Thank you Leonid Yakovlevich for your hard work in procreation of the Nikolaev circleless high-flying butt pigeons.
Chairman of the club "High Flight" Krasny Luch Shakhov I.V.

Nikolaev pigeons are one of the most valuable breeds of birds. They first appeared in the city of Nikolaev and from there spread to most of the Black Sea cities of the Russian Empire, such as Kherson and Odessa. According to the most common version, these birds are the offspring of crossing local and foreign pigeons, which sailors brought with them to the Black Sea coast. There is also a version that the birthplace of these birds is Ancient Greece, and butterfly doves - Poland. They were first mentioned in the works of agriculture professor Mikhail Egorovich Livanov in 1799. The official registration of the breed took place in 1910.

The appearance of the breed

In Nikolaev birds, the body is usually small and elongated. The length of the bird from the tail to the beak is about 40 cm. The colors of the feathers are dominated by colors such as red, white, black, yellow, gray, blue . Their coloration is usually uniform.. Depending on the color of the birds are divided into:

• color-sided (whose sides and forehead are of the same color);
• white-tailed (2-3 extreme feathers are colored).

In the old days, when the beauty and style of flight were valued in Nikolaev pigeons, breeders and breeders paid little attention to the color of birds. Now, when these birds began to be compared with ornamental rocks, types with brighter colors began to appear. Sometimes this negatively affects flight performance.

At Nicholas pigeons rounded oblong head with small golden or brown eyes. They have a sharp thin long beak of light colors, slightly curved at the end. The birds have a rather powerful and strong musculature with a strong thoracic region protruding by about 45 ° and a thickened short strong neck. The back is slightly oblong, smooth, long, smoothly connected to the tail. The wings are very long, freely located near the hull, when closed they reach the tail section. Short red-white paws with light claws are not covered with hair. The tail is wide and elongated, consists of 14-16 feathers.

Flight features

Nikolaev birds famous for their unique flight technique, for which they are commonly referred to as butterfly pigeons. During the flight, birds continuously flap their wings, folded at an angle of 30 degrees. The tail is completely fluffed. Butterflies prefer to fly not in a flock, but one at a time. Even if a group of individuals is released together from the dovecote, they will soon scatter one by one. They may be in the air very long time (up to 1 hour or more). In addition, butterflies are easy to train, thanks to which the time of their non-stop stay in flight can be increased up to 9 hours. While in the air, they do not freeze or stop.

In addition to flying in the style of a butterfly, there is another variety of Nicholas pigeons, which are compared to larks. During their flight, the wings are extended straight and perpendicular to the body. Such a flight resembles soaring in the air. From the outside it may seem that the bird does not fly at all, but moves in the air under the influence of the wind. From time to time, "larks" stop in the air and hang at one point. This method of flight is usually inherent in untrained individuals.

The most common flight method for Nicholas pigeons is the butterfly method. Unfortunately, in recent years, a significant part of the representatives of this breed has lost, for one reason or another, the ability to fly in this way.

Features of the flight of these birds formed due to the influence of some features of the constitution of the body:

Butt and sickle Nikolaev pigeons

In addition to butterflies and larks, experts have bred new types of these birds - end and sickle. The first rise into the air and land in a vertical position, the wings are erected behind the head all the time of soaring. Body is vertical and directed towards the air masses. For a full-fledged flight, end birds need a wind speed of about 7-10 meters per second. With a lack of wind power, pigeons quickly lose strength and reduce their flight altitude.

Crescent pigeons fly horizontally. In flight, they keep smoothly, allowing for slight slopes in both directions. The body is located parallel to the ground or the direction of air masses. The wings are wound behind the head and are arranged in the form of a sickle, thanks to which this type of bird got its name. Sickle pigeons are found much more often than their butt relatives. However, end pigeons are valued higher for their rarity and higher flight. At various competitions, the lion's share of awards and prizes goes to these birds.

Growing and training conditions

very popular both among professional breeders and in amateur pigeon breeding in various countries of the globe. Pigeons received the widest recognition in Russia, Ukraine, and the Baltic countries. These birds easily adapt to different climates and conditions. They are unpretentious in food, successfully breed. Nikolaev pigeons have a lively, mobile character. Birds lend themselves well to training (especially butterflies).

Despite them high level adaptability to various growing conditions, Nikolaev pigeons feel best in the atmosphere, close to the atmosphere of their native region. It is in such an environment that birds most positively manifest their flight properties.

It is allowed to start training pigeons from the moment they reach the age of one and a half months. The calendar date for the onset of this period, as a rule, corresponds to the end of March - April. The first training flights should take place in the presence of an adult, who will serve as a flight instructor for the chicks. The load for the chicks from lesson to lesson should be gradually increased, but not too sharply. After 5-6 "lessons" you can start teaching pigeons to fly independently.

Many breeders practice bird training at night. In this case, the pigeons rise into the air at sunset and land only in the morning. This method is dangerous because young inexperienced birds, poorly oriented in space, can get lost and not come back. For such flights, it is necessary to turn on the flashlight., to the light of which the pigeons will be guided. The best time to study is early morning. Cloudy or foggy days are also not good for studying.

The diet of Nikolaev pigeons should mainly include plant foods. The main food for them is to make millet, corn and peas, as well as wheat, grass, various vitamins and top dressings, etc. Adults are able to provide themselves with food.

Treatment of diseases

Butter pigeons are most susceptible to diseases of an infectious type. Usually the development of infection in pigeons, it is accompanied by symptoms such as:

• apathy;
• disturbed digestion;
• convulsions;
• clumsy movement or flight, refusal to fly.

If any of these signs appear, a qualified veterinarian should be consulted, who will determine the type and severity of the disease and prescribe the appropriate treatment. As a rule, various antiseptics and antibacterial agents are “prescribed” to Nikolaev pigeons. In no case should you start the disease, because one sick individual can infect the entire flock, which will lead to a mass death.

Did you know that pigeons differ not only in breeds, but also in species, more precisely, in types of flight? Who are End Pigeons and what is their difference? What is the difference between flight and what is its feature?

There are sickle varieties. They are most often seen in parks, courtyards and just on the street. Sickles during flights make a wing swing. Butt swings do not do, therefore they say about such pigeons that they do not fly, but end. From this technique the name came. By the way, Butt Pigeons do not have any admixtures of Sickle Pigeons.

The style of their flight

The wings and tail of the Tortsovye birds are very mobile. Thanks to this, their surface and flight height are easily regulated, which also depends on the direction and strength of the air flow.

With good training, such flyers can withstand in the air from 7 to 9 hours, sometimes even more.

During flights, they prefer loneliness, but at high altitude. If we talk specifically about the style of flight, then two words will not do here. During the flight, the Tortsovs can be compared to eagles, when they soar without moving their wings. Sometimes they look like beautiful butterflies or larks, while the wingspan is larger and smoother, unlike other pigeons. From the ground, it may seem that the Torpedo Pigeons want to cut through the clouds with their wings and sharp, but smooth movements.

The history of the breed

End flyers appeared at the end of the 19th century. It is quite an outstanding and unique breed that was bred in Ukraine. The predecessors of this breed were pigeons, which appeared with the help of sailors, who brought them to the territory. It was the predecessors that were similar in appearance to the Butt birds, and when crossed with local birds, which were selected by flight, the Butt pets appeared.

There were such birds at first not far from the Black Sea. It was the salty air and the local climate that influenced their development. Due to the strong fresh winds and air currents that are ascending in this area, a style of flight has been formed.

Varieties

As already mentioned, there are quite a lot of species and breeds. Among them, the most famous are Sickle and End.

However, End also have their subspecies:

• Nikolaev;
• Kirovograd lilac.

A distinctive feature is not only the color of the feathers. Flying is also a little different. The place of birth is also different, since the Nikolaev and Kirovograd birds were bred in different cities.

Nikolaev

Nikolaev high-flying birds are an outstanding species, whose homeland is Ukraine. A feature can be called the structure of the case, which is quite smooth. The body is covered with dense feathers, which serve as a support during flight. The tail and wings of such a bird are very mobile. And thanks to sufficiently strong muscles, these flyers can soar in the air for a long time, which indicates great endurance.

Nikolaev birds, unlike the usual ones that can be seen in every park, can take off without circles and thus reach a great height in short term. In addition, if you train such a pet, then he will be able to stay at a height for 5-7 hours, without training - 1-2 hours in the air. A distinctive feature can be considered the dependence on the wind: for their flight, a fresh wind is simply necessary.

Kirovograd lilac

Kirovograd lilac flyers are significantly different appearance: white eyes, dense dark plumage with a lilac tint, proud posture and short paws. Unlike the previous birds, the flight of the Kirovogradsky cannot be long. However, it remains at a good, high level in terms of quality.

Kirovograd purple flyers have their own peculiarity - they cannot rise to too high a level. In such cases, the birds begin to give back. However, you can get rid of such troubles with the help of special training. Kirovograd birds are most often bred in order to watch their beautiful and unique flight. Although it does not last long, but the technique is unsurpassed.
