Can be adult or squeakers.

I’m looking to start to grow my own bird supply. I’m on the search for good flying strong, healthy pigeons. I’m hoping to spend less than $60 for squeakers as I can buy pedigreed ones for that online... but I want to start with some better quality reliable birds.

Obviously adult birds would not be flown bu used for breeding.

Would need to be picked up or shipped to Lehighton PA 18235.

I have done a bunch of research and already own quail and pheasants... ow I’m looking to add pigeons to my bag!

Thanks in advance for any help!

Craigslist has quite a few birds and for the right price many will ship. I'd look and look elsewhere throughout the country. If you just want to train with them and not race, I went to ferals and have no complaints. They home just as good as racers (flown out to 20 miles), get up and go from a trap or a throw down and reproduce just as fast. Save a few bucks and hit the dairy barns, over/underpass for squeakers or corn cribs with traps.
