Get to know our charming resident pigeons!

Ancient Tumblers

Paddington and GooGoo, could there be a more perfect pair of Ancients? GooGoo was an unexpected addition to the loft and quickly became one of our favorites because of her nosy and bossy attitude! Tiny and typey, we just love her! Paddington  comes to us from John Heppner, and he definitely knows he's hot stuff!

Shortfaced Budapest Tumblers

The Friedmans. By far the most comical pair in the loft! Friedman was picked up from a SoCal breeder at the 2008 Pageant of Pigeons and definitely has the biggest personality in the loft! He loves walking around the house and is even potty trained! Mrs. Friedman, a DeCarlo Jr. hen, is a real lady and a wonderful mother. In fact, this pair really surprised us when we discovered they could raise their own young. We've even had them help with our Berliner Kurze babies! Why are our Budapests so robust, charming, and adorable?! We don't know. But we sure do love them!!!

Classic Old Frills

Claudius and Sylvie. Our gorgeous and charming Classic Old Frills. Sylvie is a total sweetheart, very affectionate and snuggly. Her favorite thing to do is slip out of the loft and fly right into the house! Claudius, an incredible looking black laced Blondinette COF, was a gift from the lofts of the wonderful Dave Mott. We think we're going to get some fabulous little ones from this pair!

Berliner Kurze

Fall in love with the Berliner Kurze - we sure have! Is it the booties? The cartoon faces? The Zitter-Hello we get every time we walk in the loft? All of the above! We've got just a few birds from Diane Jacky that we're working with: Ava, a beautiful light grizzle hen; Hidalgo, a red male; Mr Smashie, a blue, and Tommie - a hen we bred from a Heppner/Jacky pair. Photos coming soon.

Your Basic, Run of the Mill, Ordinary Brooklyn Street Pigeon...

OK, OK... there is definitely nothing ordinary about Brooklyn! Packed with personality, Brook is a real People Pigeon, and he LOVES Kari Jo. And his stuffed yellow bunny... and his Disco Ball... and his two chihuahuas... and showering with Kari Jo! Yep, Brook pretty much gets to do whatever he wants. Brook is a real snuggler, cuddler, and lover - a true testament to the type of wonderful and charming companion a pet pigeon can be. Picked up out of a street puddle in Brooklyn, NY when he was just 5 days old, there was nothing special about him. No superior breeding lines. No special pedigree. But he has shown that any pigeon has the potential to be an incredible companion.

Gone... but not forgotten.

Our beloved Mickey passed away in June of 2009 due to complications from a tissue growth in his throat. We were devastated to lose this incredible little bird. Mickey, one of Diane Jacky's little stunners, was very special - perfect in every way, with a personality that couldn't be beat. Mickey really has a strong place in our hearts and we will remember him forever.
