Nun

The Nun pigeon is a distinctive and charming breed characterized by its elegant appearance and unique feathering patterns. Known for its striking “hood” of feathers that envelop the back of its neck and extend upward, this feature gives the nun pigeon its name and contributes to its monastic appearance. Typically medium-sized, Nun pigeons are noted for their smooth, streamlined bodies and graceful presence. Their plumage comes in a variety of striking color combinations, often featuring a contrast between the body and the hood. This breed is predominantly bred for exhibition purposes and is admired for its beauty and gentle temperament. Nun pigeons are relatively easy to care for and are popular among both experienced pigeon fanciers and beginners. They thrive in a clean and well-maintained aviary, where they can be observed showcasing their peaceful nature and sociable behavior, particularly when coexisting with other pigeon breeds.
