Dutch Tils (Hague Sporting Pouter)

The Dutch Thief Pouter

The Hague Thief pigeons are a special breed originally made out of 1/3 old type Valenciano 1/3 Holle Cropper and 1/3 Racing Homer. This breed was developed before the beginning of the 20th century. The Dutch thieving sport is possibly much older then the Spanish Thief Pouters brought back to Holland by Dutch sailors. The game is much more exciting due to the intelligence and temperament of this breed. - Rene Kruter
