We're picking up some homers next month and am in the process of figuring out how I want to set them up. I plan on making an aviary for them to share with our coturnix quail. This seems all fine and dandy for spring through fall. I take a few of the youngest quail in late fall and put them up in a rabbit hutch to over winter them for breeding the following spring to replenish our numbers again. However, I'm not exactly sure what to do with the pigeons. I've read a lot of people keep them in the aviary and just make sure they have draft free areas within it, and cover the aviary with plastic for the winter. Does anybody actually do this in places where it gets cold? Do you have any pictures of your setup?
