Pretty birds
The first two could be rollers, but it's more likely they are mixes.The first one is a red slate. The second is a blue velvet/t-pattern/dark check (whichever you prefer) And the third is a blue stencil splash. Looks like frill stencil, I think.

ooooh so beautiful! I love the last one.
When you say ferals is that just what the common 'rock dove' is - like the city pigeons or they could be a mix of a bunch of types of pigeons, like a mutt? I often admire the beautiful collection of Detroit pigeons at my bus stop.

I see - my first pigeon (years ago) was a random pied looking bird, different form my Ringneck doves, of course, but I didn't think much of it. This year I adopted a Homer, and s/he looks very different from that first pigeon, mainly in the beak/head.

I'm guessing there is roller crossed in them with their small round heads and smallish beaks. Beautiful birds!

ooooh I love the pigeons! I saw some city pigeons that were red, white and gray, they were very striking; I wish I could bird-nap them!
My Ringneck Doves look boring compared to these pigeons - ho hum. :P Question: to be a Birmingham Roller you need to roll? Is that how they are distinguished form other pigeons? My roller is getting bigger; I think he was seriously underweight when I got him, but still lives with two doves until I build a coop for him and my Homer.

The feathery feet ones; are they good fliers? Wow pigeons are so beautiful, I do have a white Homer (boring) and a Yellow Birmingham Roller...but I would love to have some splotchy metallic pigeons!
Would it be ok if or will all types of pigeons mate with each-other? or is it best to keep one type of pigeon. My Homer is aggressive so s/he lives alone.

Yes, all pigeons will mate with each other
It's fine to keep different kinds together. If you don't mind mixed breeds, then let them do as they please
