  • During a conversation with a mate this topic came up, neither of us, during our 20 years alive, have seen a baby/young pigeon! All the pigeons you see are full-sized..

    Where the hell are the baby-pigeons? I mean, maybe they're in nests, but to never have seen one is somewhat strange..

  • They are birthed full-size.

  • in chocolate easter eggs.

  • I've always pondered this question!

  • and what sort of a person opts for the 'invisible' option on here? 'cept for me ofcourse.

  • "young pigeons" sounds downright weird.

    • You never see baby pigeons because the little buggers all have asbos and aren't allowed out of their nests untill they reach maturity. Barbra Windsor Jnr, Aberyswyth

  • I see..Wiganwill, I've considered the invisibility-option, but then was intrigued by how they lose their invisibility when they become adults, thus scrapping that option..

    I get it now, they're in nests having asbos until they're old enough..

    Problemmmmm? Lots of other people are invisible too!

    No; I prefer the stalkerenger mode myself.

  • Invisibubbles.

    I prefer invisbleninjaaaaa

  • Having spent years working around areas where pigeons get in and breed (and crap - fucking loads) dead would be my preferred option. Clearing away one dried and stiff corpse is far and above better than 100 pigeon turds.

    I did find a baby once, years ago. Tried to teach it to fly - epic fail............. not on my part

  • Last year, i was living in a flat that had a pigeon nest on the roof of the shop below. And there was always a pigeon mum going down this hole in the roof. if you went into the bath room you could hear the pigeon babies cry.

    Everytime you pissed?

  • Sounds more like a medical condition that needed seeing to..

    I used to have a pigeon family on my balcony. They laid an egg and we watched it hatch and grow up... and then cry all the fucking time and shit everywhere. So when it (finally) was able to fly, I boarded up the gaps to keep the pigeons off the porch. I also had to throw a couple of new eggs off the edge, because I wasn't going to deal with all that again.

    that's not the worst of it, we lived above a chicken shop.

    the question begs was it really fried chicken they sold?

  • I can fuckin hear them from my apartment though, loud little bastards!

  • We just saw one the other day! on top of a clock (surrounded by those no-pigeon-stakes) at Ealing Common station.
