We went back to Canton Friday, and I bought another pair of pigeons. One is a high flyer, and the other is half high flyer and half fantail. I don’t know much about them yet, but they are both black and white and very pretty. We also got some new chickens, and someone gave my sister some free chicks.
When we were putting the pigeons and new chickens in the run, my Mom noticed that there was another egg in the fantail pigeon’s box. That blog I read on pigeons (it’s in the comments somewhere) says that they will lay 2 eggs one day apart, and that’s exactly what they did.
My parents were doing a bunch of work in the backyard today, and they let the pigeons out to roam free while they worked. They left the door to the run wide open, and the new pigeons didn’t fly out. I think once they’re used to their new home and more relaxed, I might take them out to fly and see if they return home each time.
