The homing instinct is the strongest in the homing pigeons which are the type that are raced like i have the common barn pigeon may or may not return home
You let them fly around your place then after a few weeks you can start taking them on training tosses where you take them a mile and let them go then take them a few more miles and let them go and so on till you hit about 60 to 100 miles from your place and from there they can make it home from most distances up to 500 miles and sometimes more and that is air miles not road miles. Some will not make it home due to hawks or just not having good homing abilitys but they normally settle in on a farm or city and enjoy their life as a common pigeon

@@whoovitt I assume you have to train them?
