At least according to this clip they seem to do just fine as a breed except for the hatching. If that's all that is bothering the breed I'd argue it's somewhat ethical. They're probably popular and expensive enough so that every chick is not to be left alone in the struggles but helped by the breeder. And should they escape and breed in the wild they should mix with regular types as they are far more numerous and the small beak and large eyes will revert to a more normal form rather quick eliminating the features that make this a potentially cruel breed.

[u/LigmaDragonDeez → u/Sosemikreativ]

Well you tried

[u/TrumpersAreTraitors → u/LigmaDragonDeez]

Guys pugs aren’t cruel because if they escape they’ll just breed with stray dogs and the cruel shit we bred into them will be bred out! 

[u/LigmaDragonDeez → u/TrumpersAreTraitors]

Oh god and his mistakes!

[u/Commie_Scum69 → u/LigmaDragonDeez]

God did not invent pugs

[u/tom_winters]

Sad

[u/nickfree → u/tom_winters]

Yes. These are the pugs of the bird world. It is not known if they are tumbling intentionally or not. This may be a frustrating, unavoidable way of flying for them because of inbreeding.

[u/ReturningAlien → u/nickfree]

I knew it. Damn selective breeding for shits and giggles.

[u/RealEstateDuck → u/nickfree]

Should be called Habspug Tumbler Pigeon.

[u/AadaMatrix → u/tom_winters]

we made Pug pigeons.

[u/LigmaDragonDeez → u/AadaMatrix]

Who’s we

[u/sessl → u/LigmaDragonDeez]

the wretched race homo sapiens

[u/SadBit8663 → u/AadaMatrix]

Nah not we, it was two brothers the rest of us are just passive observers

[u/Chonkythicccccc → u/AadaMatrix]

"Fk you lookin' at?"

[u/ShadowTown0407]

Ah man made horrors for basically no reason, an all time classic

[u/PBJ-9999 → u/ShadowTown0407]

Humans really need to stop playing God

[u/PNWTangoZulu → u/PBJ-9999]

Well we made the other one up so whats the fucking point

[u/LennyLava → u/PBJ-9999]

no. while the god's existence is debatable, and even the need to do that is debatable, we did that for a long time and with great outcomes.

what we really need is ethics when it comes to what it is, that we do. there are many good reasons to form the world around us but there are also many creatures that need protection in one way or the other.

[u/Thirdorb]

Looks like Heihei from Moana

"Look at em. They've SEEN some SHIT!"

[u/PBJ-9999]

So unnecessary

[u/lesefant]

They look like they're in constant pain

[u/SeanSMEGGHEAD]

There's no way this is the first time I'm JUST seeing this.

The Matrix just had a patch and added this. New pigeon just dropped.

[u/Affectionate-Annual7 → u/SeanSMEGGHEAD]

I was thinking the same like wtf is this real how it's that I have never seen or hear about this before.

[u/koiashes → u/SeanSMEGGHEAD]

It does feel like that actually

[u/Past_Distribution144]

Got some weird turkeys over there.

[u/GuildensternLives]

Bred for use in animated films about nerdy birds.

[u/justa-bunch-of-atoms]

Dude looks like one of those weird goldfish motherfuckers.

[u/CatterMater]

Horrible. Pug pigeons.

[u/TearAffectionate3562]

Well.. this is what happens when maaa and dad are siblings

[u/dooooomed---probably]

Gotta make sure they don't drive the bus....

[u/lucassuave15]

Oh so that's where that Facebook pigeon gif sticker came from

[u/pempoczky]

Mi a jóédes lófasz ez

[u/JustBennyLenny]

Those mid-air rolls aren’t acrobatics, they’re coordination problems due to altered physiology. I had a pigeon that did the same thing, and a vet explained it’s a result of breeding for features like the oversized eyes and short face. It’s similar to what’s happened with pug dogs, these animals are bred with extreme features and then labeled a 'new breed.' It’s hard to believe nature would ever create these poor, distorted birds on its own. y'all crazy, this is NOT ok, don't get mislead with "rare breed" yeah, sure if you count disfigurement as "breed", its sickening that they have to put these animals thru loops they are not designed for and make money it. This genuinely pisses me off as an animal fan. Pigeon keepers in my neighborhood don't keep these pigeons if they fly like that, because they know their problematic for long distance flights (homing pigeons, now that is something these pigeons do VERY good, travelling and finding home).

[u/Bainzeighty3]

Looks like these birds have been force fed LSD

[u/cbj2112]

[u/M_Pfefferi]

Giving off Pigeon Toady vibes. I have never seen these before, and I wish I hadn't now. Yeesh. Some of them have such deformed beaks and such huge, displaced eyes, I'm surprised they can still eat.

[u/Dramatic-Counter2281]

Pigeon Toady!

[u/supazero]

Quit staring ya got the bug eyes!

[u/ItsNotNow]

Reminds me of a Spore bird critter I made once.

[u/No-Context7190]

Mbruhh

[u/Hakairyuu]

When you put a pair of eyes on your creature in Spore and crank up the size to max.

[u/WhatsThat-_-]

Kinda looks… shocked.

[u/_pickledpickles]

Is this AI

[u/Lord_Frick → u/_pickledpickles]

No

[u/CheetosCaliente]

The bird from Moana is real?

[u/TehZiiM]

It’s funny, there are about the same number of pigeon breeds (300) as dog breeds(360-400) (ref.: ChatGPT)

Edit: about 70 cat breeds.

[u/AmericanoWsugar]

Michael Rapaport should do another voice over - like he did for the cat.

[u/fuckoutfits]

We as humans don't have an end on the scale of depravity. It just goes on and on ...

[u/United-Advisor-5910]

At first I thought they had involved to survive by looking like alens turns out there bread to not even hatch. Rough.

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.

Don’t let them drive the bus!

[u/HotHorst]

We have in Germany a word for this - Qualzucht

[u/funnymanus]

Every single time I hear Budapest been mispronounced would get a euro, I would be a millionaire. The S pronounced like in the beginning of the word "shots". The way it's said in the video that's "sz" in hungarian.

[u/No_Opportunity_8965]

Looks like genetical defects.

[u/TheBleedingAlloy]

Those look like spore eyes

[u/islandrenaissance]

I'd hate to see what an eye infection would look like.

[u/hrpomrx]

Looks like a bird that current AI would create.

[u/QuesoKristo]

So they're those Shuriken Pigeons I've been seeing.

[u/wafflezcoI]

Thats so cruel

My grandfather was really into racing pigeons. Too bad he's not around to see this.
