Whats the difference between store bought doves and the white doves used at our release?
Store bought doves are domesticated ring necked doves. These doves are cage raised and are not hardy enough to survive in the wild. The white doves used for your release are descended from the Rock Dove, AKA: Homing Pigeon. The Snow white homing pigeons we use are selected from three strains of racing pigeons. These birds have excellent homing ability and are trained to return home from a hundred mile radius of our loft.
