Hi everyone,
I found this pigeon in our driveway on our farm and I caught it and kept it in my aviary with my quails. I think it's a female but can't be certain, sometimes it acts like a male but can't tell. I went and got some high flyer pigeons to keep it company so seems happy.

My pigeon Laid an egg today. It's unfertilized since we don't have a male bird. Should I take the egg or just wait for her to get tired of sitting on it?

Hello!!! Our pigeons have a one week old baby and he had been doing great, but yesterday he seemed to be breathing kind of hard but we thought it might be because it was hot out…today, he’s breathing more heavily and it makes a clicking sound, so we were suspecting some sort of respiratory...

Hello! I am new to the poultry world. Started with a lost pigeon, now I have 25 pigeons and thinking about a chicken family next. We live in city limits where there are limits so before I make the choice thought I would do some research. Also find other pigeon lovers.

I'm going to attempt a flock-thread.
As you can tell by the title I'm not very creative, so no Bukky points or anything!
I love all my birds so much! The only exception is naughty cockerels and drakes, but I guess it's the same for you.
We'll go in an order something like this;
Chooks
Quail...
