mghodowlaHow to print a pigeon pedigree
In short: How to print a pigeon pedigree for a sale or a show: what a clear pedigree contains and how to prepare it in pedigree software.
A buyer wants to see where a pigeon comes from. A clear, printed pedigree builds trust and adds value to the bird.
What a pedigree should contain
Ring number, colour and sex, breeder details, and the sire, dam, grandparents and great-grandparents with their ring numbers and best results.
Printing from software
In Pigeclub the ancestry is already recorded, so you print a pedigree in a moment, with no retyping and no risk of a wrong ring number.
Paper and format
A4 is usually enough. For a sale, use heavier paper: the pedigree will sit in the buyer's folder for years.
Stop retyping pedigrees. Pigeclub imports them from a photo or a PDF. See Pigeclub.
