Jay,
Sounds like we are both working too hard! Keep me posted on what
you find in Jon's birds, and how they compare with what you are
flying. Do you know what their background is?

Scott,
I don’t think we are on the same page with you for the
definition of mutation. Mutation in genetics is different than
your 100% pure Pensom non-mutated rollers, even though I don’t
agree with you in that department either. Any color, pattern,
behavior (including rolling), feather ornaments and any other
traits you can think of is a “mutation” compared to our standard
blue bar wild-type. So even if your pure Pensom rollers were not
crosses between 2 or 3 different breeds used to develop
Birmingham Rollers (even though we know they are), they are
still mutants since they carry colors and patterns other than
blue bar, and more importantly they have this extra ordinary
ability to roll. We can’t find better mutant example than
Birmingham Rollers when we study pigeon genetics.

What mutation ? Toy Stencil is from crossbreeding not mutation.
( Toy stencil is very, very complicated mutation and I don’t
think anyone truly understands this mutation yet )
