If they have been out since the new loft has been erected and are used to it being there, I would say you could let them out in a couple of days. Make sure they cannot gain access to the old loft and that they are not fed before they are let out and just encourage them in with a bit of conditioning seed. Pigeons learn very quickly

Agree there mate,

       one thing I would do if your in no rush to move them for a couple of days,leave the door open on their new loft and tempt them in with a few peanuts that way they know it's safe to go in and out .
