My two domesticated clowns, Bonne-Chance and Pigeon. They’re a domestic bonded pair!

Bonne-Chance: Male Whiteface, Purebred French Pierrot. He’s not exactly show-quality because of the off-coloring stockings, but he’s still classically trained in pantomime and very healthy, with lovely markings and a pleasingly complex personality. Make sure to properly research geneology with purebred clowns. I sourced Bonne-Chance responsibly. Pierrots are usually very well-behaved, and Bonne-Chance is a particularly sweet one that doesn’t lose himself in the stereotypical bouts of Pierrot melancholy.

Pigeon: Male mutt, mixed wildtype European Tramp and American Landrace Circus/Rodeo Auguste cross. Messy markings, but he’s talented at stunts, mimicry, tricks and pranks, and a very skilled buffoon. And he was a rescue! He adapted well with no behavioral issues, very endearing and sweet- anyone who says adopted shelter clowns can’t adjust to a home life is wrong. Pigeon tends towards very upbeat play and keeps from being too rowdy, but sometimes shows some distinct Sad Clown display, which is normal and healthy as long as it isn’t too excessive.
