Re: Respiratory

Yeah seen that. Some fancier and a real good, tough family of pigeons. The lad that won that race really has burst onto the scene these last couple of seasons.

Re: The Importance of the Intestinal Lining

What are members thoughts A free roaming pigeon, has the freedom to choose the best environment in which to live. It can move from one place to another until it finds the proper shelter, with the correct amount of ventilation, dryness, and light. These birds are not forced to eat in the same area a...
