Pigeons/pigeon whistlesI was wondering if anyone knows what type of pigeons they use to carry whistles? I am planning on trying this out and would like a little more info. I was also wondering if any body knows how many of what type of whistles it takes to produce a musical flock. Thanks a ton.

Here is some info about pigeon whistles. This page has a lot of great photos and may take a while to load on your PC. The wait is worth it.

I have a casette tape of the flight of some birds with whistles. It is amazing to hear how the various sounds come when different birds are released to join others in flight.

whistlesi just bought 2 whistles this morning from a friend here in new jersey. they are more decorative than the ones on the pigeon-china web sight. he was charging $10 apeice. i wont have any birds to put them on to try it untill june. but i did hold it out the window on the way home to try it and it was pretty loud. suposedly they are suposed to scare the hawks away. he had afew differant styles , nicley painted, and they all sounded a little differant. if any ones interested i can direct him to this post. happy flying john from jersey
btw, he had his whistles on a small breed posibly a tipplet. i intend to use them on my colored homers. Last edited by flewthecoupe; 9th April 2005 at 04:43 PM.

I was wondering if you might be able to point me in the direction of your friend by email or phone. If not I was also wondering if you might be able to get more whistles from him. For $10 a piece thats much better than trying to get them from china. Any help would great thanks.

The pictures are not showing up for me. Can some one explain how these are attached to the bird? How heavy are they?
