Indian Gola

Bird

The Indian Gola is a small pigeon that looks similar to dragoon pigeons. This pigeon has red eyes, and is a bird of speed and endurance. They have an average speed of 65-70 mph, and can fly more than 10-11 hours without stopping. It is a homing pigeon with a very good homing instinct, but cannot be used for racing because the adults cannot be trained. These pigeons always move freely; the only way to train them is by bringing them when they are 10-12 days old, and feeding them by hand. Once they grow up and know their loft properly, they will try their level-best to return to their loft.
