The rest of the colors out there are the ones that the rest of us fool around with. Opal, reduced, dilute, brown, khaki, andalusian, toy stencil and the hundreds of other ARC and AOC projects floating around out there. Throughout the years the color almond has been typically associated with English Short-Faced Tumblers, so we may refer to this breed as the example of standard show quality Classic Almond coloration. These birds basically exhibit a rich "burnt-orange" ground color from head to toe, and are liberally sprinkled with black or kite (dark colored), flecking. There were always different opinions concerning the proper ground color. Fulton preferred the outside of the shell of an old almond nut from where the name was derived. In old nuts, the shell of which has begun to molder away or become crumbly, is seen a deep rich, but not reddish yellow color, which is our idea of the proper ground. The gray stippers of the Danish Tumbler and the sprinkles of the Oriental Roller are lacking the factor for recessive red and in addition carry the spread factor. Spread in not available in the classical almond coloration and has the effect of whitening the plumage because spread masks bronzing. We strive to provide only quality information, so if there is a specific topic related to Racing Pigeon Loft website that you would like us to cover, please contact us at any time.
