New List For Valencian Figuritas


Thought some of you might be interested in this new discussion list.

Terry
------------------------------------
From: Greg S <gws_1963@yahoo.com>
Subject: [doves-pigeons] Yahoo list for Valencian Figuritas

One time post for my new Yahoo list:

I started a new list for Valencian Figuritas, a small
perky little breed of pigeon. I know a few people
here have them, so am posting just this once.

If you have them, or are interested in learning more,
please join:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/valencian_figuritas/

Thanks!

Very neat looking little bird from what I see on the link.

When I get a chance I might just pop-in!

Hi Treesa,

Greg is a long time and well respected member of the doves-pigeons list, so based upon my knowledge of him there, I would think this new list will be a great one if you have an interest in this type of pigeon. I also seem to recall that Greg is a member here .. could be wrong.

Terry,
I do believe you are right in saying that Greg is a mamber here. He and I are also friends/rivals in showing figs. We had a show last month and I took best of breed. I really think that another bird of mine should have taken it, but what can I say. The person who judged the figuritas raises modenas , and chose the biggest fig. showing.

I applied for the group, but was denided. I'm not sure why but I get the feeling that you MUST have, raise, breed, or show Valencian Figuritas. To me it puts a kind of bad impression on the idea of the group, you'd think they would want to help people get into the breed. I wanted to know more infomation on I am interested in the Old Frills, Old German Owls, Seraphims, and them as they all have similar features. It makes me think differently of the group...

Birdlover,
I'll ask Greg about it, and let you know what I find out. O.K?

Ok, Thank You. I don't want to sound mean or anything, I just was a little confused on why they wouldn't want to draw people in to be apart of the breed. Maybe I didn't say why I wanted to be in there right....

birdlover,
I heard from Greg. Try applying again, and really say why you are interested in joining, maybe, interested in raising/showing figs, and looking for all the info and mentoring available. Greg is super serious about his group, so really think before you write.

See, when I did apply, I put something like,...." I am very curious in this breed, and am looking forward to maybe getting some in the future. They seem very interesting..."

I've been thinking about it, and I think I am I going to give some time before I apply again.
