About the Silver King Pigeon
The Silver King carries a rich, even silvery-grey body with dark dun bars crossing the wing coverts in a curved V and a darker grey neck shot with greenish metallic lustre. Genetically silver is the dilute of blue, giving a softer, paler tone than the Blue King while keeping the same big, blocky utility build bred for squab.
