Bird Breeder
A reputable bird breeder can sell you a healthy chick and instruct you about keeping purebred chicks.
Both parents take part in the incubation and weaning the young, and males brood for about 7 hours, starting at 10.00 p.m. and ending at about 5.00 a.m. The parents feed the hatchlings on a crop secretion called ‘pigeon milk’, so they don’t have to leave the nest.

Pigeons reach maturity at about 6 months of age. Adults start building nests right after mating, and females lay their first egg about 10 days after mating. Clutches contain two eggs, and the second one is laid 44 hours after the first one. A reputable bird breeder can sell you a healthy chick and instruct you about keeping purebred chicks.
