Debrecen in search of the most beautiful pigeon

Local News

Interested ones could see nearly 300 pigeons in Csapókert Közösségi Ház (Csapókert Community House) in Debrecen last weekend. The aim of the exhibition was to promote breeding.

The most beautiful of the Hungarian giant pigeons was chosen based on the animal’s body size, nice shape and intense colour. The exhibition has been held for several decades in Debrecen in order to promote pigeon breeding as fewer and fewer people take up this hobby. Organizer István Cservenyák explained pigeon breeding lost its popularity because a lot of people have moved into flats over the last 15-20 years. More than 250 pigeons were exhibited at the event. The most enthusiastic admirers were the children.
