The American Domestic Show Flight is a breed of fancy pigeon developed over many years of selective breeding. Domestic Show Flights, along with other varieties of domestic pigeons, are all descendants from the rock pigeon (Columba livia).[1] The Domestic Show Flight is a relatively recent American creation which was developed in the state of New York.[2]
