This is a picture of my pigeons dropping

Is it salmonella?

It's hard to say from a picture... did they have good droppings when you bought them? Often times pigeons will get bad droppings from stress (a new home is stressful), hot weather, and a diet/food change. What exactly are you feeding them? Also, do the droppings have a very bad smell to them?

And sorry if I'm slow to reply sometimes, but I work nights

So
They had extremly good dropings
The poop doesnt smell bad
its smells normal
I give them a mix of sunflower, peas, wheat and corn

If they are eating normally, and have a healthy weight, I would wait a couple days and see if things return to normal. Hopefully it's just some stress and things will calm down.

I was waiting in hope that @Old_Strain_Lover would answer your post. He has so much more experience than me!
I find I'm better off if I don't get too stressed about changes in their poops. As long as they are eating, drinking and acting happy I don't worry too much. When I have noticed the poops seem really bad I have given a course of amprolium in the water (for coccidiosis)and it has always made them nicer for a time at least! But thankfully I have had almost no illness in my loft. It a low-stress loft I think.

Curious what you learn from the smell?
