As soon as the female pigeon is around 6 months and sexually matured, (which is 4 – 5 months for male pigeons), they are ready for breeding. Just like every other bird, they have a proper breeding process that is the following.
When the female pigeon is around 6 months old, it will find a male pigeon to pair with. At this point, many pigeons have ended up with a male pigeon. Once they have mated, after 8 – 12 days, the pigeon will start laying eggs.
Meanwhile, both male and female pigeons will start creating a wonderful nest. First, they will choose a supposedly perfect place that will be high, dark and all the ways closed with only one way open. They then collect and decorate their nest with leaves, sticks and grasses. When the nest is ready, the male pigeon will soft make coo sounds inviting female pigeon to the nest.
Unlike some birds, male pigeons will take care of the female and raise the young along with its mother. The female pigeon then comes to the nest and sits in all the time except for food and water. On this point, take care the pigeons more than usual by providing proper food, seeds, and other nutritious food and clean water.
In addition to protecting the nest and the female pigeon, male pigeon continue decorating the nest and keep supporting the female. In this period, both male and female are very protective of their nest and won’t let any other pigeon approach or enter. If you or any other pigeon or bird gets close or move into their nest, they will probably start fighting with them.
But if you are breeding pigeons in a cage, after they have mated and paired with a male pigeon, create a beautiful nest for the pigeons preferably higher than the ground with the same materials they would do. Do not make the nest very different from their native nest to make them feel safe and comfortable.
Pam please tell Donnie these Hansennes do indeed have a lot of class. Large wings like I've never seen like maybe on a duck or owl. They have a lovely prance, and their Roman noses takes the cake. Love it! Keep up the good breeding Donnie.
Dear Don,
Just sending a gift for my appreciation for getting such nice Sion birds from you. When I get some youngsters from them, I will send you some photos. I am still planning on purchase another hen and cock. Have a good breeding season with your birds.
Received birds this morning here in Missouri. They are safe and both beautiful.
Beautiful female pigeon. Lovely mix of colors, fether quality and great posture. I figured her picture wasn't the best pose. The male is impressive and very masculine looking and I'm happy to say they are calm and get along very well together. Thanks again they are gorgeous....

Hi this is Nate from Wisconsin. I just wanted to let you know the Andalusian cockbird made it here in good shape today. Thanks again!
Hi Don, birds are adapting well. I like their presentaion & calmness. Looks like they will fit in with my birds. I see what you mean about the BB. We'll see how he produces. Might b a genetic thing & go away when crossed with and unrelated hen.

Jim
