Canary Roler basic information

As a type canary the Gloster is bred for physical appearance. The key feature of the Gloster is his crest. The crested version is called the 'Corona' and the plain is called the 'Consort'. While the crested is favored in shows, both are very important to the breeding programs. Aside from the crests they do not differ in appearance. The Gloster is one of the smallest canaries, though he is larger than some other type canaries. They are generally no longer than four and three fourths inches in length. They are a solidly built cobby canary. Glosters are often described as well rounded and short. They possess wide bodies with full backs and necks. Their wings and tail are short and carried. Their plumage is finer than that of the Crested Canary. Their plumage is seen in a wide spectrum of colors and markings. Green and Cinnamon are two of the most popular varieties.
