They were a Strain of Racing Pigeons that I 1st saw in the mid/late 1970's.. Very large long winged birds on the Large size all way round... Mostly Blue Bars.... They didn't race very well in So. California, but do remember one that was an xlit racer up to 150mi. only....... Don't think this is the right way to spell it Dordin though??... Don't know of anyone that still has them... Happy

Dordins


I used to have DORDISN 15 years agao and I know several top flyers who still keep that family and do very well, if you want u can import them from Ireland as most US flyers will not part with them....

I did have what i thought was nice dordins. Back in the late 70s. Picked them up from a person who imported them . He has passed away years ago. Now they were not BIG birds medium to medium large. But I have not seen any in years.

I was out of racing for 25 years. I had dordin's, and loved them. They were on the large size, and are very attractive birds. I have found some in australia, but am trying to locate some in the US. Thanks, Don.

I live in central California, and if I am unable to locate any dordins, could any of you recommend any reputable breeders close by? Thanks, Don McGowen.

Dordin


Did anyone ever locate anyone in the US with Dordin pigeons? I am looking to get in contact with anyone who still has this breed.

Dordin


I did find some out of the US, but the shipping and other misc fees are pretty high. I sure do miss my old Dordins from "back in the day."
