Breeding does slow down in the winter months but in some cases it does not stop completely.. This may help on your quest click the link: https://www.google.ca/search?q=pige...2450,d.dmQ&fp=b1bb94b0d1c72a8&biw=960&bih=515 Another option might be to contact retailers who sell agricultural feed for livestock near by and make inquires. For example these two squabs hatched December 26, 2012. I placed the nest with young squabs in this cooler until they fledge as shown in the photos. Last edited: Jun 29, 2013

Jun 30, 2013 #4 Hokum Coco Crowing 9 Years Dec 6, 2012 4,279 3,674 487 New Brunswick,Canada I say hen pigeons can lay an egg without a male. However pigeons are not like chickens who after years of selective breeding do not need a rooster to lay. Pigeons need stimulation and will lay faster and more often if a male pigeon or lesbian is present. Most fanciers go with either Dam - Sire; Cock - Hen; or Male - Female Here is a link to give you some common pigeon terms: http://desmoore.tripod.com/id29.html Last edited: Jun 30, 2013
