- We're back on the road for a very special visit to the birdroom of Richard Knowles. Richard is one of a handful of fanciers who has set about trying to re-create the London Fancy canary with some spectacular results!
Wow some fantastic birds there,and it looks like there getting stronger each year,fabulous birds Richard and very dedicated to get these birds back up and running 😍😍😍 very interesting video thanks for sharing
Stunning looking canarys beautiful
I several times saw drawings of the London Fancy in old books and thought everytime what a pity that this breed is gone. Thanks to Mr. Knowles and his fellow breeders for the effort to bring them back! Best regards from Austria!
I’ve lost count the amount of times I’ve watched this video. I know when I finally get back into the hobby it’s the London fancy I would like to work with. Over thirty years ago I remember seeing a picture of one in cage and aviary ( well a model of one ) and couldn’t get over the fact they where almost if not gone . The work that Richard and others are putting in is outstanding.
Glad you’ve enjoyed it Peter, Richard and Andy have worked tirelessly to get this bird back and it’s heartwarming to see the progress they’ve made
Thanks for all your Kind comments Guys, Appreciated!!!
Beautiful birds the London fancy looks
Richard the frontline you use for mites, is that just the stuff for dogs please?
They look a beautiful type and size canary well done
"...we've moved on to a new level..." Understatement of the year!!! And at the end: his simple rundown of the basics that 'don't cost a fortune' and saying "... it is a hobby that you can be a part of with a minimum amount of money." is a good reminder. :)
Amazing work to have achieved this re-creation. Thank you for bringing this bird back for everyone to enjoy.
Just feel the love of Richard for the London fancy canary ...this made me loving more this bird...
Fantastic job is done by this Gentleman,working in silence ..
Thanks Sir Richard
Also thanks Matt for this new amazing episode
I can remember about 45 year's ago a old canary breeder telling me about this bird. He was saying his Dad and Grandfather keeping This bird. But war came and the house's in the street both of them lived in got 💣. Flattering the houses and out buildings. Killing the birds when the men were at war in France. When they can back their hearts was not in it. Thank god this Gentleman is bringing it back. Thank you for letting us see them. Instead of in paper's and book's.
My respect for the persons who are bringing this extinct beautiful canary breed back. Here in the Netherlands there are also a few breeders working with the London fancy. I saw them for the first time at the world show a couple of years ago and was very impressed by them. Very interesting episode, thank you for sharing this with is! 👍👍👍
What a super video, lots of great observations, thanks guys! Good luck with the London, such a great effort.
Brilliant episode
Great show
I greatly enjoyed this episode and have been watching the updates in C&A. Huge congratulations to Richard for his work with this fantastic breed. I would be very interested in seeing how we may be of more practical support for this particular project. Well done Canary room. Best episode to date!
great video and great birds!
Great show, nice seeing the London Fancy, wonderful advice also
Thanks Matt, what a great episode, learn something new for a novice. stay healthy stay safe.
Great video Matt, as allways!!
I am glad you approached the London Fancy family to your channel. I am also a London Fancy breeder in Spain and enjoyed a lot with this chapter.
When I first looked at these birds the first thing that entered my head was a miniature Golden Oriole.
great episode Matt , enjoyed that !!
Very good episode ! 👍👍👍
Many thanks from Germany!
Great video loverly birds
Fantastic look forward to seeing some on the show bench in the future😁
Brilliant. These canaries are certainly different from the rest, I love them. Unfortunately In Spain London Fancy birds are unknown.
Great video very interesting 👍
Fascinating.
Brilliant matt they are a lovely bird
Lindos pássaros!
Good job 👍 👍👍👍👍🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔
Very interesting , can it be done if we tried here in Australia
You’d need the right birds to start with but don’t see why not
@@TheCanaryRoom what do we need to try , Lizard and Borders or Satinettes , my Husband and I have Borders, Fifes and Mosaics
Please I look for tips on how to keep canaries cosy at winter???
As long as they’re not in draughty environments they’ll be fine
Well done takes a lots of time
شكرا لك صديقي العزيز
Ma i sottotitoli in Italiano?
up now
Matt did you ever get your book published?
Not yet!
cannot get any sound on apple mac air
Hi Ruth, I’m perplexed I use a MacBook Pro to edit it
Do you ever interview people who breed canaries for their singing ability? I guess they don't have classes at shows for them. 😕
I’m trying to get one with Rollers Vicky
