These guys are about 2 week old and UGLY!!! Baby pigeons grow so fast that by the time I add another post they will probably look like adults. Now for the big surprise...here are the parents
Yes..they have curly feathers. They are know as frillbacks. I think they are neat looking birds. This is MAMA
This is POPPA
Finally here is a close up of the feathers on the wing..
I will post the babies again in a few days. I have another pair of a different breed sitting on an egg so I will try to take daily shots so you can see the difference a day makes!

WOW that is amazing - I've never seen baby pigeons and never seen curly feathered ones. They are very cool looking!
Wonderful..I enjoy pictures and things like this..You have some beautiful shots..Can't wait for the rest as time goes on...Never saw a pigeon like this and found the feathers very unique.
Momma had better get with some aerobics, Poppa is quite the handsome regal looking fellow!
The pictures are amazing. Birds are so sweet. I have 2 cockatiels that were sitting on 5 eggs and then 4 eggs but neither set hatched.
Oh, I love pigeons very much. I raised a pair of babies when I was little and it was so much fun! I also used to rescue lost/injured pigeon babies. You're so lucky to be able to raise them.
I love the frilly-ness of their feathers. So pretty!
