Im really wanting to get into the pigeon bussiness. What i mean by that is that i want to breed and sell a variety of pigeon breeds and make a halfway decent profit. Ive been raising and breeding pigeons for a hobby sense i was 10, right after they took down our local church and i rescued a pigeon who broke his wing when it collapsed. He was never able to fly but i kept him for about 4 years before he finally passed. After that i was really interested in pigeons so i invested in six pigeons. It cost me over 200$ because of the cost of shipping up to where i live (Maine) but it was well worth it. I then started to breed. After many failed attempts my pigeons finally started to produce babies. From starting out with those six, 3 males 3 females. I was up too 20 birds in no time at all. Do fast forward to today, im 17 and we have just recently moved to a new home about a mile away and my pigeon loft is much bigger now. I want to start a buisness with my pigeons. Ive sold a few here and there but want it on a much bigger scale now. Is there a market for pigeons out there? Can i actually make a profit? How hard is it to ship? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! -Dawson Daigle
