Pigeon Setting On Eggs

Throughout the winter we have been feeding a few barn pigeons and getting them to hang out in our barn. A few weeks ago we noticed a couple of pigeons started roosting in the rafters of the barn. The other day I noticed there is only one pigeon roosting in our barn now. She seemed to stay close by, only leaving for a few minutes when we go in to feed the chickens and collect eggs. Today, I decided to climb a ladder and see if there were any pigeon eggs in the nest. Sure enough, the pigeon is setting on two cute little pigeon eggs. We will keep an eye on them until they hatch and then we will capture the babies to start our little pigeon flock. They should come in handy for training our pointing gun dogs.
