Ukrainian Skycutter Pigeon

Ukrainian Skycutter Pigeon

The Ukrainian Skycutter pigeon (also known as Polish Orlik) is a breed of domestic pigeon. As the name suggests, the breed is from Ukraine and has been developed for high flying. Like most other breeds of domesticated pigeons, the Ukrainian Skycutter is also a variety of domesticated rock pigeon. This breed of high flying tippler was developed by centuries of breeding. It was actually originated from the Crimean peninsula in Southern Ukraine. And the first documented standard for these birds was set up in Nikolaev, a city in Southern Ukraine. The breed is known by the name of ‘Tucheresi’ or ‘Tucurez’in it’s native area. It has first reached North American, beginning first in Canada as early as 1967. A clear conception of the name of this breed has never been held on this continent and in fact, three different breeds have been given the genetic name of ‘Ukrainian Skycutter’. And this results a greater amount of confusion. These three breeds are the two Orlik varieties, the Ukrainian Shield Tumblers and a strain of white Nikolajevski. The result has been that because of this generic name, the three have been crossed to a horrible degree. However, read some more information about the Ukrainian Skycutter pigeon below.
