Day 9

I know there are some questions I haven't got to yet but I will soon.
Just lacking motivation today.

@(you need an account to see links) I wouldn't say they are soft like a blanket but they do feel delicate. There skin is kind of loose so it's definitely hard to explain their texture ahahaha.

Pin feathers are softer than regular feathers as they are just developing. So not like a pin cushion despite its name. Pin feathers x).

@(you need an account to see links) the dad is a German owl. I used to breed pigeons as a kid so I always wanted this breed but they were on the rare side. So as an adult I found some 2 states over and made it happen x).
Just for fun. I breed rarely.

@(you need an account to see links) I'll get you a photo of my flock. 90% white x)

@(you need an account to see links) most definitely. I just love the sound they make and I like to see the babies grow and mature.
I was breeding white pigeons for someone locally but they haven't needed any recently so. I was trying to breed some fancy babies just for fun.
When we move I'll be getting more fancy ones.

They are ridiculously cute! Like "Bro I know I'm ugly but I don't care" cute :3 Can't wait to see more pics, Keeping pigeons is one of my many wish-it-was-hobbies lol

These are adorable! I have a pair of pigeons in my apartment complex's garden that I think are mating.

Can't wait to see more development of these stages!

They can be in pairs or alone. If you want a pet pigeon sometimes they are nicer when they are alone.
If you do want one see if you can find a breeder and hand feed it.

Hand fed babies are always nicer and more tame!!

I took a bit to respond but I wanted to come and say that they are very cute and I think that is such a cool thing to be doing. Even better since you seem to genuinely enjoy it

. Very happy for you and these babies.

Hard to keep up with this just because most days now I don't see much difference and don't want to bore you all.

More feathers today!!
