Different infection can be causing these signs. Avian Paramyxovirus is one of the most common in pigeons (PPMV1) and it is a viral infection that is present in most countries that can spread rapidly and cause high rates of pigeon illness and death. Unfortunately the prognosis is guarded in these cases.
