About the Red Runt

The Red Runt carries a rich, deep, even shade of red across the surface with a matching red undercolour, the neck showing extra sheen and lustre in green or beryl tones. One of the recognised colours of this giant Italian table pigeon, it pairs that striking even red with the breed's massive deep-keeled frame and calm temperament.
