    Buying my first pigeons. What age should they be?

    I haven’t decided on anything in specific. I will most likely just find someone who has pigeons near me and buy from them. Unfortunately the one guy I was asking for ports from said he was dealing with some type of sickness in his flock.

    Buying my first pigeons. What age should they be?

    That makes sense. I have two people in my town that I believe are flying pigeons. If I get in contact with them I will make sure to ask if they have any un flown pigeons. Thank you for the reply!

    Buying my first pigeons. What age should they be?

    When you started at day 10 did the pigeons parents still take care of it when you were done training or did you take on that responsibility?

    Buying my first pigeons. What age should they be?

    Okay that does make sense. Can they fly at this age? If they can't can I take my birds out in my backyard and start training them to come to me?

    Buying my first pigeons. What age should they be?

    I am going to start looking for pigeons for my almost completed loft (It should be done by the end of this week). I have been looking and have found a few people with pigeons. I wanted to know what age I should ask for when I get my pigeons? What is the earliest that I can get them without...

    How far off the ground should my loft be

    I live in Northern New Jersey. It gets pretty cold in winter. My loft is a 3x3x3.

    How far off the ground should my loft be

    My loft is 3 feet high with a door centered in the middle of the box. I tried to keep the chicken wire windows higher off the ground in order to prevent cats from peeking in. How high should I keep the box off the ground?Can I do this with 2-3 layers of cinder blocks?

    First loft, pigeons, and training! Advice?

    Yes, I will probably try to keep nearby and only let them out when there aren't a lot of hawks. Ill try and find a happy middle between flying and keeping them confined to their aviary.

    First loft, pigeons, and training! Advice?

    I see…I guess I'll have to lock my birds up for the bad seasons and just hope for the best. In the end if I lose a bird It'll be sad but I will have prepared myself. I'm going into the hobby knowing the risk '\_('-')_/'.

    First loft, pigeons, and training! Advice?

    Thats understandable. A fantail seems like a good fit as well. I will see if I have any in my area. Thank you so much.
