These two have decided to have babies. I'm excited because they're my two favorite pigeons, especially the white one. @Amer any guesses on what colors the babies might be? Could they have another pure white one?

Took some pics of my oddball pigeons today. These things breed like rabbits, l started off with 5 last year and now I have don't even know how many. Lol. Anyone know what colors these two are?

Awww! Congratulations!

Mine were sitting intermittently. But I just went out there, and both seem to be zipping already!!! How is that possible?!

They're both looking great still, and should hatch on the tenth I think. One looks internally pipped already though, so I wondered if it could be early or not.

Do pigeons always hatch on day 18?

Also, my pigeon eggs are due in 6 days! I can't wait.

I missed this, sorry! I got him from a neighbor that keeps a bunch of Homers for fun.

I definitely will. I hand raised both the mom and dad from since they were a week old, and they'll both fly to my arm/eat out of my hand/let me pet them, etc. They're extremely friendly. When I went to check the nest she just made some little cooing sounds, and let me lift her up. Same with the...

The daddy is on both of them now. This is so neat. I love how friendly both parents are, they literally don't care at all when I come and look.

They laid another egg!!!

Ok! I can't wait. It's the cutest little eggy ever.

I've hatched hundreds and hundreds of eggs, just never pigeons, haha.

Yeah I figured, I'll just leave it for now. They take about two weeks to hatch, right?

Here are a few pics of her from today. She's so cute. She came out and ate out of my hand, then flew right back in. And here's daddy.

Ok! I'm not sure what I could use as a fake egg. I have some old Bobwhite eggs, maybe I could use one of those. She's been sitting on the egg well all day, and the male is actually on it right now so fingers crossed. I still haven't see him mount her at all, so we'll see if it's fertile...

Ok, sounds good! I did raise a pigeon from day one a while back, until he was about two weeks old. Then I put him in another pigeons nest, she had the same age babies so it worked well. It was a long time ago though.

Ohhh I get it. That makes sense, I just read it wrong the first time. I'm so excited to learn along the way! This will be a fun new experience I think.

Ah, ok! If that happens would it be better to just incubate the eggs myself? I feel like I could probably successfully raise them, but I'd rather not try if I don't have to, haha. I can't believe how excited I am over this, lol! I'm really surprised by how much I like the little birds. Never...

Hmm, interesting. Why does it make the incubation go slower? I feel bad for my poor little girl taking full time. I could pull a baby after a few days and hand raise him. I was hoping to get a friendly one anyway. I definitely don't want to lose any, so if that happens I'll try to help the...
