About the Blue Tippler
The blue Tippler shows the breed's most common and traditional flying colour — blue bar, blue grizzle and blue chequer shades, the plumage of the classic blue-self birds flown in the breed's early Cheshire records. Blue lines are prized not for the colour but because they sit at the heart of the old endurance stock, bred purely for the stamina to fly in a kit for many hours and drop only on signal.
