This is an alphabetical list of pigeon breeds. Pigeons and doves are members of the bird family Columbidae. Doves tend to be smaller and pigeons larger, although this distinction is not consistently applied.
![]() | This article possibly contains original research. Has various speculative notes marked with "?" in it, commented out now, and numerous unsourced entries, and suppositional identifications of one breed with another, without sources, AND annotations marked with "→" that are not clearly distinguishable from those marked with "=". (February 2018) |
The birds listed here are breeds of the domestic pigeon (Columba livia domestica). Other Columbidae species (e.g., the domesticated Barbary dove, Streptopelia risoria) have been developed into breeds, but these are generally simple colour variations. See also List of Columbidae species.
