I am thinking she might be a pomeranian pouter or reversewing? Her throat area puffs up pretty big when the male pigeons come over....any ideas?

First after being in my coop one night.....confirmed its a he not a she. But, I got him at a feed store in Escondido. The normally just carry ring neck doves and quail but he was sitting there all mixed in. He is already trying to pair up with one of my lone females. Good times.

It is a pretty bird. I don't know what it is, but I believe it is carrying a pencil gene. Mine looks like that, but without the feathered legs.

What is a pencil gene?

 

[RodSD]

The pencil gene is when they have those colored head. For example, http://www.slobberknockerlofts.com/color_chart/pencil/.

can you let these pigeon out to fly free or are they no good at flying

 

[ggoss1]

He can fly...with the muffed feet it is funny to watch them walk because they lift thier legs extra high.
