🕊️ Parlor Roller
Pigeons & Doves · breed reference
THE PIGEON THAT CANNOT FLY — in a family where every bird flies, the Parlor Roller somersaults BACKWARD ALONG THE GROUND instead, and the sport is distance: set the bird down, and a good one rolls a measured line past two hundred yards (the records run further). The Birmingham Roller's tumble, grounded by selection. Flightless means fox- and hawk-bait — it lives in a pen, performs on a lawn, and goes back in.
