my pigeons get on each other's nerves....

[marehaven]

Hello I just found this site....love it! I recently bought 2 pigeons at an exotic animal sale. I would like to know if the are males or females or both. They seem to hate each other...in fact they fought on the way home after I bught them. I thought I had it figured out when one kept herding the other around, I thought ...Aha! male/female...but then the "female" started herding the "male" around... And even though they fly together and hang out together they still fight and act like they cannot stand each other. Can anyone out there explain it? I like having pigeons and want them to be happy

How recently did you get them? They could be both males or the hen could be aggressive and doesn't want to take the abuse without a fight.

If you're trying to figure out who is the male and who is the female; males generally are more aggressive, sweep their tails on the ground and do a little dance. Of course, sometimes there are exceptions and a hen may act like that! The surefire way to tell a hen is if she lays an egg
Maybe you have two males? Good luck!
