    Introduction

    Welcome and Thank You for Your Purchase. This E-book has 2 Parts. The First part will cover Racing Pigeon Eye Sign in Detail and Part 2 will Cover Winning Feeding and Health. Let’s get Started...

    Part 1

    Mastering the Eye Sign

    No matter what your views on eye sign are, studying eye sign can give you lots of information about your pigeons and can greatly speed up your success. After all information is key to becoming successful at pigeon racing so the more information you can acquire about your birds the better. However, eye sign is only a very small part of the large pigeon racing picture and decisions on racing or breeding should never be made solely on eye sign alone. There are many other factors besides eye sign that a fancier should look at in order to be successful in pigeon racing such as ancestry, breeding ability, racing ability, size, shape, feathering, anatomy etc, etc. All of these things combined are what separates the champions from the rest and ace fanciers from the hobbyist. 

    Eye sign is most effective when used for breeding selection purposes but once you become more experienced and comfortable with eye sign it can also be used as a guide to figure out birds possible racing capabilities. Knowledge of eye sign can greatly assist you in breeding better birds and staying on top as well as allowing you to keep fewer and better birds rather than a lot of worthless ones. 

    Tools of the Trade

    When it comes to eye sign there are only two tools that a fancier will need for successful eye sign research; the loupe and light. The loupe will allow you to magnify the pigeon’s eye while you examine it and proper lighting will allow you to see the reflex action of the pupil the moment the light hits the eye. It is in this first second of the reflex action that you will learn the value of a bird as a breeder. Reflex is the action of the eye muscles pulling the iris proper down over the pupil giving the impression of the pupil getting smaller when the light hits it. In reality it does not move at all. This reflex action is what allows us to make our best judgment of the eye and its value by allowing the circles to be seen in an enlarged state. This is the only proper way of making a grading.

    You will want to try to block out as much light as possible when putting the loupe in your eye, so that you will get a good look at the eyes reflex action. You will want to conduct your eye sign research with the brightest sunlight
