I have never seen a yellow roller with the full package.
However i have seen a yellow with a quality roll but very infrequent.
Ive yet to see a yellow that can fly with an established kit of rollers and to perform at a high standard.

The reason nobody has seen a great yellow is because they are so rare..

If you have a copy of Pensom's book , THE BIRMINGHAM ROLLER PIGEON, look just inside the front cover. There you will see a picture of a bird " The IDEAL TYPE BIRMINGHAM ROLLER".
Under that picture it says, " Creambarred badge hen, NBRC 1936 #13 bred by WHP. This hen won the first 12 times in shows AND BEING AN OUTSTANDING PERFORMER IN THE AIR IS PROOF ENOUGH THAT QUALITY SPINNERS CAN BE SHOW WINNERS, Written by ED
WE can ask lots of questions all day long about this or that but where would you put a picture of a bird you thought very highly of? Would you bury in the text? Or would you put it on a page by itself, just inside on the back of the front cover?
What we do know , this bird had the TYPE, and the PERFORMANCE of a true birmingham roller. What ever color it was, is irrelevent. But if the color description was correct and indeed was a Creambarred badge, it was a YELLOW, or a Dilute ash red barred badge.
