Note: these are European Wood Pigeons, a wild species hunted in Europe. They have considerably less meat that domestic Utility Pigeons bred for squabbing purposes, hence the fella preparing them merely breasts out several of the birds. Utility breeds of Domestic Pigeons such Kings, Texas Pioneers, Hubbels, Swiss Mondaines and others have enough meat on the carcass that merely breasting them out would be a wasteful thing.

Pigeon Loft Plans and Fixtures

In the coming week, we'll be running some new articles on how to properly house Utility Pigeons for squab raising purposes.

While we've included some links to Amazon of some really great pre-fabricated poultry coops that we feel are very suitable for raising pigeons, we also realize that many of you would like to save some money and build your own pigeon loft to house your squabbers.

Quite recently, we reprinted a great historic book on the subject of pigeon loft design and construction that we feel will give people a lot of insight into building their own pigeon coops. It is by the great pigeon writer E.J.W. Dietz and is entitled Pigeon Loft Plans and Fixtures. Like the other books we publish, it is very affordable and can be ordered through Amazon.com.




Many updates ...

Today, we completed many updates to this site.

Please check out our selection of books on squab raising and other books on pigeons which can be ordered from Amazon.com, the world's most trusted bookseller!

We've also added a great selection of pigeon supplies, as well as pigeon bands, including some of the most affordably priced personalized seamless bands we've seen anywhere! These too, are also available through Amazon.com.

Amazon also offer some great pre-fabricated poultry coops that we feel are perfectly ideal for raising home grown squabs in your own backyard. There is a nice example below!

We are looking forward over the next few days in bringing you some more information on raising pigeons for squabs.
