One finished Rainbow Modena Pigeon 🌈💖🕊️
Available, shop link in bio 💖
And now I'm going to permit myself to do a little infodump about this breed, because who doesn't need more pidgeformation in their lives:
🐦 They're one of the oldest breeds of fancy pigeon, dating back to the early 1300s
🐦 They originate from the city of Modena in Italy, hence the name, but are now bred around the world for show
🐦 Their portly appearance is in part due to the length of their feathers, which can be up to 4 times the length of those of your generic, standard edition pidge, giving them MAXIMUM FLOOF
🐦 They are, however, also a little heavier than your average pidge, weighing in at around 500g vs the usual 350g
🐦 They come in around 150 different colour combinations and patterns, which is more than any other fancy pigeon breed!
