Pigeon Talk

Well, Doo and his mate put one over on me. I lost track and didn't get his 3rd round of eggs switched. So when I was scraping the loft and saw a half shell in the nest .... :eek: omg. Sure enough, two hatchlings! :hit and :love at the same time.

Doo in the thumbnails below.

Maybe @Abrielle will decide on homers and adopt them...:p
More oops babies! They are too easy to breed. Are you going to keep them or try to rehome them before they get too big?
 
The stable pigeon population is on the increase!

This is prime breeding season!:D Are the stable pigeons tolerated? or in danger of eradication?

edit - oooh! Just saw the foto. lol awesome nest!
I posted it and forgot to add the picture! They're being tolerated at the moment. There's not so many as last year. The broody geese are the main focus from everybody at the moment. They have set up shop in an empty stable and chase anybody that goes near, including horses!
 
Will you be selling off the youngbirds? Does it need to be 'walk-in' for you?
This is one that seems good with a removable divider...
pt 2
pt 3
In your climate you would not want the front completely open. Also, I would suggest a solid wood floor if you want be able to walk in.
It could be 4x8.
That is an awesome loft! :love
All mine are at my house. I have three chicken coops and a large run, the pigeon loft and I can't remember how many rabbits! All we need is the horse to come back and a couple of goats and we'll have a bona fide farm! In town! The one thing that would worry me most about not having mine close is them getting stolen. Some pigeon keepers have had some expensive birds stolen.
You deffinetly goats! :D:love

Is that a problem, hatchmates breeding? :confused:
