Yes, they will come home, but you run the risk of losing them. Hawks love pigeons, and fantails are very weak flyers. So they couldn't fly away fast enough. Cats also will catch them if they land on the ground. So if you like them, don't fly them since they are an ornamental breed.so I have some fantail pigeons and they have chicks the chicks are pretty big and they fly I wanted to know can I let them loose will they not fly away? like will they stay at my house?
If you feel that the predator threat is low,,,,, then try and loft fly them. Not sure what the predator threats on the island are. Not sure if there are hawks???so I have some fantail pigeons and they have chicks the chicks are pretty big and they fly I wanted to know can I let them loose will they not fly away? like will they stay at my house?

If there are feral cats,,,,,, they most certainly are a valid threat. My feral cats do not bother my chickens. For some reason even those chickens that are size of pigeons. (view Avatar) They most certainly ALWAYS were licking their chops when looking at my pigeons.
