Pigeon Genetics Utah Game

  • Learning and understanding the genetics of racing pigeons is crucial to the successful breeding of the birds. There are genetic traits that you know desire and need to introduce to the gene pool of your loft. You need to know just what you want. Another important area is in linebreeding.
