There are some lovely different colours there Dev. Well done on finding them. Just a shame that the colours have just been imprinted onto the same template.

This is the way that most photos are done nowadays. Every pigeon in the photos are identical apart from the markings/colour. Look at most auction sites, there all the same. There not true photos of the pigeon. If they were you’d have the odd feather out of place, pigeons standing slightly differently, maybe the odd missing feather, some with longer wings going further down the tail, some shorter, etc.

Have a look at the 2 auctions on pigeon chat. Again all the same template, the same as these ones. Maybe 2 or 3 very slight variations if a couple of different templates used.

They are lovely colours Dev, I bet his loft is quite something to see. Number 1 certainly has some big names in its breeding, just a shame I can't rest the rest of it 😕😁😂
I think number 6 would be my favourite.
My best ever pigeon was a silver hen, she was in the clock on the winning day 3 years running from Thurso 552miles taking 1st Club on her third outing. Sadly I never bred from her as she never laid an egg and she was lost in a smash from Elgin 485miles, it's the only race that I've ever been in where no one in the club or federation timed in.
