History
William Bernhardt Tegetmeier recommended that the English Pouter started from cross reproducing the old pigeon breeds the Dutch Cropper, Uploper and the Parisian Pouter. Each of these breeds is depicted in works dating from the seventeenth century.[1] However, in a prior record, John Moore recommended that the breed was the consequence of cross rearing between a sort of cropper and horseman (both eighteenth century pigeon types).[1] Historically, the English Pouter was likewise called the Pouting Horseman, because of the connections with the Horseman breed.[2] The advanced types of croppers, for example, the Norwich Cropper, begin from the English Pouter.
Charles Darwin portrayed the English Pouter in his 1868 work The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication, saying that the breed was "maybe the most unique of all tamed pigeons".
Description
Similarly as with all types of tamed pigeons, the English Pouter is dropped from the Rock Pigeon (Columba livia), and has been created over years through specific rearing of people with particular characteristics.[1][5] It is a type of extravagant pigeon,[5] that being a kind of pigeon kept by pigeon fanciers as a feature of the extravagant pigeon bunch rather than Flying/Sporting Pigeons or Utility pigeons.[6] The Pouter is since a long time ago limbed with a broadened harvest, and general an extensive body.
