Description
Renowned for its striking transformation from a compact, ordinary pigeon to an augmented, globe-shaped avian marvel, brunner Pouter pigeon is an impressive spectacle. Its capability to inflate its crop to a gargantuan size, mimicking a balloon, and the elaborate courtship dance, marked by passionate cooing and high-stepping, amplify its charisma.
