The American Singer Canary
American Singer canaries are a type of song canary developed in the United States which has been bred for willingness to sing freely, melodious and varied song, and outgoing personality.
First developed in the 1930's by a group of women in the Boston, Massachusetts area, American Singer canaries have become one of the most popular breeds of canaries in the United States. A cross between the Border type canary and the Roller song canary, the American Singer possesses the best traits of both breeds- the musical song of the Roller and the pleasing looks of the Border. Its song is louder in volume than the Roller, but softer than the Border.
Over the past 70 years, dedicated American Singer canary breeders have made great strides in the development of the breed. The resulting improvements in song have produced the Singers of today which are noteworthy for high quality song. The sometimes loud and brash American Singers of yesteryear have been replaced with songsters who display the remarkable variety, melodiousness, and - above all- outstanding freedom for which the American Singer canary is prized.
