    'Alaska', my Ash Dove, has recently lost his voice. He went from having a bright and loud coo, to a hoarse coo, to no coo at all except on the inhale, all within the span of a couple days. His laughing coo sound when he lands is now very high pitched and strained. He's behavior has not changed...

    I'm considering getting a pair of female pigeons as pets. I'm wanting a pet but I want to make sure that I can provide for a pet's needs before I make a commitment. I haven't spent time with pigeons aside from feral city pigeons. I'm hoping that some experienced pigeon owners might be willing to...

    Hello everyone, I've had my Sverdlovsk blue-grey mottle-headed for about a month now. I was told before I adopted her that she had an unusual coo, a low woo-woo-woo (that sometimes trills up an octave into what sounds like an alarm?). Lately, I've noticed that in her sleep, she makes the typical...

    I've been getting to know my two new pigeons by speaking to them or singing through the bars of their cage. I am not sure of the sex of either of them, though I suspect at least one (the older one) is male. I'm getting them DNA'd next week. This evening I was singing a song with a lot of "oo"...

    Hello! When I woke up this morning, Clementine was cooing and laughing in an odd way, similar to the way a person talks when they have a bad cold or loss of voice. She seemed fine yesterday and still looks generally okay (she flies around to her favourite spots, tries to coo a lot, preens...

    Hi everyone! My female dove has always been fairly vocal, but today, she was being very lovey with her mate, and she kept on going through the motions of cooing (filling her crop area with air, and then releasing air) but nothing would come out. After a while, her mate lost interest and walked...

    Hey y'all! First time posting, so feel free to move this where ever makes sense if I put it in the wrong place >< I've been reading up on pigeons for the last three months after I saw some in New Jersey, and have finally ordered one for myself from KC Kennels. He's a Birmingham roller named...

    There is a common wood pigeon in my area who goes coo coo coo, long pause, coo coo. Usually the pause is quite short (YouTube search Colombaccio for good example), but this one is quite long, as if the woody has a stammer or speech difficulty. What is this wood pigeon doing? (does he need...

    So recently I bought a new diamond, assuming it is female due to her size and eye ring. With the couple of months of her being here already, she seems pretty quiet and when she does coo, it's not as powerful as a male's coo. But one thing I have a question about is how many note coo's can...

    Hello I am considering getting a ringneck dove and I have a few questions first. Mainly I'm worried about how loud the male coo is and how frequent? Is the coo louder than a wild mourning dove? Is it personality based and some are quieter/coo less frequently? I would probably get a single male...

    We took in our homing pigeon after it was attacked by a hawk and survived by getting trapped between a fence and a statue. She is fearful of returning outdoors, and has been in a 3X5X4 foot cage in our bedroom, which she refuses to leave. She has been in this cage for the past six months, and...

    So I thought it would be fun to talk about pigeon calls for a bit. All 6 of my birds are hand raised, and one of them is a 24 hour cooer. They are actually fun to listen to compared to an abrasive parrot scream. But sometimes I wonder what the calls actually mean. I'm going to call the first...
