Tuffy


Why does it take so long for a Tuff to moult out to adult color? I have two of them and every week they are a differant color. I'm not complaining I just don't understand it all. Maybe when I have them longer I will. I love the Husbands. Ken

Re: Tuffy


Its funny, the buffs are the color they will be when they come off the nest. The tuffs you never know what they will be until the moult. After you have had them some time you can guess pretty much which phase they will be. They change more than any pigeon I know of.

Re: Tuffy


One of those cоcks is off of my brown check hen so you could have one come brown check. Sometimes they look brown check and then turn red bar tuff. You just never know.
