The white dove and the turtledove are Cinderella's stories. Two white doves flew in from the kitchen window, followed by two turtledoves. Then, all the birds in the sky flapped their wings and flew to the ashes. After a while, they helped Cinderella pick up the beans. After she thanked them, the sparrow flew away from the window.

The habits of white pigeons

Compared with other poultry or birds, pigeons have their own unique living habits.

First of all, homing pigeons are monogamous birds. Pigeons are selective to their spouses when they are sexually mature. Once paired, they are single-minded and inseparable, unlike other poultry. In the same flock, if the number of male and female pigeons is not equal, there may be two male or two female same-sex spouses.

After pigeons are paired, both male and female pigeons participate in nesting, hatching and feeding young pigeons. Pigeons can't be paired again after they are widowed. In production, artificial selection can be carried out in a planned way in order to cultivate excellent breeds, improve pigeon quality and avoid breed degradation caused by inbreeding. If the male and female pigeons are paired freely, they can be disassembled and paired again, but it is very time-consuming and laborious.

Therefore, in breeding, it is necessary to master this characteristic of pigeons and make an artificial pairing scheme as soon as possible to prevent free pairing. In addition, after the adult pigeon loses its spouse, promiscuity may also occur during the estrus season due to its strong sexual desire, which will interfere with the pigeon. In order to keep the pigeons quiet, they can be paired in time or temporarily isolated.
