The Voorburg Shield Cropper is a breed of fancy pigeon developed over many years of selective breeding.
Voorburg Shield Croppers, along with other varieties of domesticated pigeons, are all descendants of the rock dove (Columba livia).
[2] Their NPA standard notes that they should be a "...friendly, animated pigeon that is quite responsive to human voices and attention.
In show condition, it should give a constant, active performance."
They are unafraid of people, even in the unfamiliar circumstances of their first pigeon show.
