The Valencia Figurita Pigeon is a bizarre breed from Spain. It was developed over many years of selective breeding and actually originated in Valencia, Spain.
This is a fairly old breed, originally bred hundreds of years ago. It is believed that these birds, or their ancestors, were introduced by the Moors during their occupation (which ended in 1492).
The breed is promoted by the Valencian Figurita Club and the Italian Owl Club in the United States, and in the Netherlands by the Figurita Club in the Netherlands. In Germany, the breed is promoted by the Figurita-Movchen-Club Deutschland.
In fact, the Valencian Figurita, as well as other breeds of domestic pigeons, are descendants of the Rock Pigeon. The breed was threatened with extinction in the 20th century, during the reign of General Franco.
However, the breed was actually named for its glowing eyes. Word ‘figure‘funds’delicacy‘ Where ‘little‘, which aptly describes this bright-eyed bird. It is one of the smallest of many breeds of fancy pigeons. Learn more about the breed below.
