Do you know of any big giant pige friends? Obviously Crowned Victorias are out of the question but any other big friends that can keep company?

The biggest is the Giant Runt.

A utility breed raised initially for meat.

This is a HUGE pigeon!!!

They need a TON of space to move around comfortably!

Like, my 10×10 aviary isn’t big enough for a PAIR of them to comfortably live!

Utility Kings like my big boy, Hoya, are a more manageable big pigeon breed.

He is literally the height of a chicken.

Bertha, the Giant Homer, is slightly shorter, but MUCH heavier!

This is a 2lb pigeon!

You need a LOT of space for all of these breeds! 

They are very obesity prone, so room to move is an absolute must to have healthy birds.
