Pigeon eggs are about the same size as quail eggs, usually around three centimeters in diameter and weighing 14-19 grams. Unlike quail eggs, pigeon eggs have a smoother surface and no spots. They can lay two to three eggs in a clutch, and after about 18 days of incubation, owners can see the young pigeons break out of their shells. After the chicks come out, owners must pay attention to keeping them warm. Newborn pigeon chicks are weak and can only thrive if they are well insulated.
