HomerA homing pigeon found me 5 1/2 years ago. I did find the owner but he did not want it back. I have kept the bird along with another one, a year later. My Homer dies last Friday. How long do they usually last? He was a very nice pet.

Welcome to Pigeon-Talk! I'm sorry to hear about your Homer
 I'm sure he had a nice life and was lucky to find you  I guess it all depends. Some birds may only live to be about 5, like yours, and some can live nearly 30 years. Some birds were just born with better systems and have better care than others. I think the typical number they stick with pigeons is up to 15 years. What happened to your bird? Did it just up and die for no reason?

I'm so sorry to hear your beloved pet passed away.
Some birds have a longer life expectency due to their quality of life and the conditions they live in or their genetic makeup. It is possible your bird might have been sick, did the bird show any symptoms?
