Schalaster Pouter
The Schalaster pouter is a German or central European pouter-type pigeon name, likely tied to a local strain within the broader cropper and pouter tradition. Pouters are selected for an inflated crop and expressive stance, not for tumbling or homing work. Because Schalaster is not a familiar everyday breed name outside specialist circles, exact origin and standard details should be confirmed through the breeder or club using the term.
Management should protect the bird's crop display while keeping the pigeon healthy and functional. A Schalaster pouter needs clean space, sensible feed, and perches that allow it to stand without constant jostling. Breeders should select for balanced inflation, sound legs, calm behavior, and reliable reproduction. An impressive crop is not enough if the bird cannot move, breathe, or rear young well. For rare pouters, good photographs and pairing notes help keep the strain understandable across languages.
