141. A New Flyer’s Journey Into the Pigeon Hobby

In this episode of the All About Pigeons Podcast, Phillip sits down with Joshua Toy, a brand new pigeon flyer doing something truly unique: keeping and flying pigeons from a rooftop loft in Philadelphia.

Joshua shares the challenges of getting started in the hobby without club connections, building and rebuilding rooftop lofts, dealing with predators in the city, harsh winter weather, breeding issues, and learning through trial and error. From homing pigeons to Archangels and Old German Owls, this conversation dives into what it’s really like being a beginner pigeon keeper trying to figure things out in an urban environment.

The episode also explores the importance of pigeon clubs, online communities, old pigeon literature, predator proofing, rooftop loft design, and the excitement of eventually free flying birds in the city skyline.

Joshua also talks about his rooftop pigeon livestream project, Dove Love Loft, where viewers can follow along with his growing flock and loft journey.

A great episode for new flyers, rooftop pigeon enthusiasts, and anyone interested in urban pigeon keeping.
