Black-barred

A variant of Ice Pigeon (Columba livia domestica)

Black-barred

Representative Ice Pigeonphoto — a dedicated image of this exact morph isn't available yet.

The classic Ice Pigeon: a pale, frosty blue-grey ('ice') body with two clean black wing bars, the form the breed is named for. The unique powdery sheen comes from the dilute 'ice' modifier.

Keeper tips for this variant

Keep lofts clean and dust-free — the prized frosty bloom on the feathers is easily dulled by grime, so the pale ice sheen shows best on well-bathed birds.
