The Félegyhaza Tumbler is a breed of fancy pigeon developed over many years of selective breeding.[1] Felegyhazer Tumblers, along with other varieties of domesticated pigeons, are all descendants of the rock dove (Columba livia). The name is short for Kiskunfélegyháza, a town in the Hungarian lowlands.[2]
