MIK Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 The pigeons choose I put in a fresh bowl for next round, they decide if they want to build a new nest or lay in the already built nest covered in shixt by previous young. about 70% choose new but we all have the lazy dirty bassas about us.

eastcoaster Posted March 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Also put fresh bowl in but out of 16 pair in stock loft only 3 have made a fresh nest and most the ybs have moved to new bowl makes you think the birds know what is for the best.

Guest LBuddle Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Leave them with their original nest. Our stock birds even keep the same nest till end of Summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
