There are two major variates of the Danzig Highflyer: ones that are bred for show, and others as pets for flying. HistoryIt is thought this breed had its origin in the vicinity of Danzig (now Gdansk) in 1807. Other sources point to the ancient province of Galicia-Poland[2] See also{{commons category|Danzig Highflyer}}
