Hi, from the beginning I put 4 eggs (because I lost one pair on 16th day on the eggs) but after a few days smallest one died. Survived 3 and this 3 pigeons flying now, youngest (from this 3) is bit smallest then other, but its going to be fine. It shows that 3 eggs is possible, but it was really hard for parents and I was helping them, and I think that without my help the weakest one would be death.
