This study explores pigeon behavior during different breeding stages in order to provide information to improve pigeon management. We observed 10 pairs of birds during incubation, 9 pairs of birds during the early nurturing period, and 9 pairs of birds with chicks older than 10 d. Results showed that females mainly incubated the eggs, with an average duration of 7.94 h d-1. Feeding and drinking behaviors also increased during the nurturing period, peaking at specific times.

Understanding genetic diversity is essential for improving breeding strategies. This study examined the genetic diversity and population structure of local goats from northwestern Tunisia using seven microsatellite markers. The results revealed high genetic variability, with an average of 18 alleles per marker and a total of 123 alleles across six populations.
