Yuyao White Feather King Pigeon

Yuyao White Feather King Pigeon

　　  The White Feather King Pigeon is a renowned meat pigeon breed developed in the United States. Thanks to the fast growth of its squabs, short breeding cycle, and ability to be cooked into high-end, delicious dishes, it has become a rapidly growing specialty poultry variety. Large-scale breeding of King Pigeons in our city began in 1996. Currently, the largest operation, “Yuyao Hengda Poultry Industry Co., Ltd.,” was the first to introduce breeding pigeons from Shenzhen and Nanjing. After five years of careful selection and breeding, it has built up a stock of 15,000 pairs of breeding pigeons and has become a Ningbo-level agricultural leading enterprise integrating breeding, production, and sales, as well as a municipal-level “vegetable basket” construction base. In recent years, other large-scale King Pigeon farms such as “Zhangchen Pigeon Industry Co., Ltd.,” “Hongxiangda Breeding Co., Ltd.,” and “Zhenhua Poultry Industry Co., Ltd.” have also emerged. The city now has 23,000 pairs of breeding pigeons, capable of annually breeding 70,000 pairs of breeding pigeons and jointly producing and selling 300,000 squabs. (Yuyao)
