Budapest highfliers?Although i am not looking to get any at this time, i was wondering, does anyone still breed performance bupapests? I had a pair when i was in high school. They flew so high that you needed binoculars to see them!

telstar12, i think it is because most people have bred them for show. Even as old a book as Levi's is, he mentions they are being bred more for show than flying.
I remember how HIGH they flew! I at least, have not seen others go so high and stay there so long. Dave Last edited by LUCKYT; 15th February 2009 at 01:23 PM. |

Thanks telestar12, but not he breed i am talking about. I am trying to find out if there are still, Budapest high fliers, that are still performance oriented.
I guess people call them budapest short faced tumblers now. Look the same, but the eyes were not so pronounced. Thanks, Dave |

Thanks! I guess i was calling the breed by the wrong name, it has been at least 40 years! LOL! Lord am i getting OLD! "Levi" called them, (Budapest White Storked tumblers), just looked it up, but they used to be considered a high flying breed.
Am i thinking about those "cute" but bug eyed budapests? Dave Last edited by LUCKYT; 16th February 2009 at 03:33 PM. |
