Baby pigeons are the ugliest creatures in the world (feral that is, I've never seen a captive pigeon chick) they are even uglier than baby Barn owls (trust me I've hand reared one and seen many).
The reason you don't see many baby birds(This is altrical chicks such as robins and falcons, not precotial such as pheasants and chickens) is because they are practically fully feathered before they leave the nest and when they are baby's they are blind defenceless and totally dependant on their parents.
I have also noticed that no-one has ever been told that there is a pig in pigeon, not pidg

Once in our town centre a baby pigeon fell out of it’s nest it kept trying to fly back up just did not have the strength to do so, a kind man took hold of the bird and threw it back on the high ledge it came from, funny thing was the bird looked back over as if to say thank you,
Sweet or what.
Yes i have seen a baby pigeon but only once.

Baby birds are like a solo jet which can't fly too high or far. Baby pigeon are kept and catered for in the nest by their parents until they have grown enough to face the challenge. They only fly little distance away (10m maximum) at that stage and continue until they are able to fly a longer distance. Lots of practise and training do they before you see them out there, flying around the park near your house.

I first saw a baby pidgeon when I was 16 years oldand a volenter at an animal shelter, they are very weak looking things and alot of peolple would call them ugley but thats not what I would say.
Small as are most new borns, covered in grey fluff and when you look at them your not sure what it is untill someone tells you as they look unlike what pidgeon you see in parks look like.
its quite hard to discribe

You will never see a baby pigeon. They are grown in a laboratory in North Dakota. It's government conspiracy created by the CIA to spy on the American public. The pigeons all have transmitters in their brains and tiny cameras in their wings. I even heard that they are coming out with a new pigeon that can read your thoughts. Better break out the aluminum foil beanies!

yes i have last year i actually caught a baby from a pigeon nest and it was fat and ugly and trust me they grow fast from the time that they are born .i caught it in mexico.and also the reason i know they grow fast is because i saw another pigeon nest wierdly it was in a house that was being constructed,and the nest was on the ground .and it hatched on this one day and by day 5 it was huge and the egg was really small smaller than a chickens egg.

When baby pigeons emerge from the nest they are actually bigger than the parents. I have them nest in my trees every summer and the come down onto the lawn and the skinny parents are feeding the huge chick.

you don't see baby pidgeons because they grow quickly, so when they're allowed out of the nest, they just look like adults.
