Pigeons have been used in wars for centuries - but how do they know where to take their letters?

I've just had a racer over since she didn't make home due to foul weather. Stayed in my living room for a week to wait for the owner from the UK to pick her up (Released in France, "broke down" here in Germany). I must say it was a blessing, I've always liked pigeons but now I love them. The bird was so grateful for the food, water and shelter I offered and always sung in the morning. Such smart, beautiful, adorable and fascinating animals, like dogs with wings.

Here in the Philippines, alot of people like me who lives in countryside owns 10+ pigeons and even if we let their cage open, it's 100% they'll come back. They also know where to poop so we have no worries of cleaning their crap. We also put straps on their feet so other pigeon owners know if the pigeon is already owned and who the owner of the pigeon is. But we don't use the pigeons to send message today tho due to the tech today

Sooooo for instance, then... all the pigeons at Winterfell that need to deliver messages elsewhere, don’t consider it home? Each castle would have pigeons of the different castles to fly “home” to? Then those pigeons would have to be transported back to the other castles in order to fly home? “Whoops... we’ve run out of Dragonstone pigeons” would be the equivalent to “shoot... I’ve used all my data” ??? Lolol Very cool video! I’ve wondered this for a while!

Im wondering how they become aquired in thr first place (for the purpose of sending communication) ? I mean if the pigeon has to fly HOME to deliver a message that means the person needing to send a message has to find a way to get a pigeon FROM that same destination (that their message is going TO) only to send the message ? If they get thr pigron in thr first place why dont they use a person to send the message ? Im confused and would love to learn exactly hoe all that works.

​@@ms.anonymousinformer242 Usually, during the wars, messenger pigeons were mostly used on the frontlines in case of something crucial happening which needed almost immediate response (ex: soldiers being pinned down) or to relay information. In the first case, it is almost impossible for a man to go out without the risk of dying. In the second case, it'd take more time for a scout to go from that location to another and pigeons are faster than horses (plus they fly) then upon arrival, the information of the scout will already be outdated. Soldiers cage the pigeons originating from the lofts (which I assume are near Headquarters) to the battlefield so when needed, they just have to release the pigeons.

Hi there, a pigeon comes to my house for a year now, his colour is golden beige. He comes here to eat & he would make a sound near my door at the backyard telling me that he has arrived and wants his food. I have fed him for over a year now & he flies back to his owner, but this past 4 weeks, he has stayed here & sleeps under the roof fence. What could that mean? He is like my pet now and just welcome him with love.

That's really nice! Are you sure he has an owner, and isn't living in the wild? Homing pigeons have been selectively bred to bond strongly to their home, but other breeds and varieties are able to move around and change their home more.

Hey, Adam. Great videos. This will sound like a dumb question. But do pigeons suffer or get depressed if they are too long in the place from where the message will be send to their homes? Also, how do they know where to go back? After a long travel. Do you have a video about that?

I had a malnourished pigeon that was mentally slow, unlike all the other pigeons in the park, it wouldn't fly away or be scared when we got in a 3ft distance of it - it would just run away even if we physically touched it and its senses clearly weren't working properly. We took it home, fed it, cleaned it up and left it in the balcony for it to fly away after a couple hours 😢

I found a pigeon I believe he was a Messenger or some thing because he had a little brace around his little ankle. He got hurt I believe some cats try to get it so we got it put in the cage kind a nurse to give it some rest for one day. We let the birds out at flew across the street from my property now just sitting on the roof doesn’t know where to go.

What’s the max range these guys have? How far away can you release them before they loose the location of their lofts? Also how susceptible are they to hawks owls and eagles? We have a lot of them around our house. I’m not interested in getting one I’m just curious.

@@AdamArcherPigeons Wow. That’s amazing. 1200KM is a pretty long distance. I have another question. What do you feed your birds? Where we live they primarily eat corn and sunflower seeds like doves. I’m just wandering if you feed them anything different since you live half way across the world from us.

Imagined getting caged and brought to somewhere you've never been before, but you just want to go home. Then you're released and they'd be like "Good luck finding your home lol" but at least you're an expert navigator. But I bet I'll be shitting myself throughout though, especially during wars. No wonder there's so much pigeon crap in some places lmao

@@AdamArcherPigeons when should i start seeing breeding behavior? I have 2 males and 3 females in a large loft.(still building up) There are 4 nest boxes and plenty of nesting material. They get a custom blend of seeds, nuts, wheat, sorghum, etc. Im still working on getting them a good grit, since my area seems to not sell any pigeon products. They have been together for around a month now, but ive seen 0 breeding behavior. If i try to seperate a pair they just fight. When together they show no interest in each other. What can i do?

So. Did they send 1 bird with 1 message or multiple birds with same message? If they sent only 1 bird the chances of the bird getting hawked or shot or just deciding to go somewhere else chasing opposite sex of the bird not making it home?
