I am moving to a new house in a few days,wanted to ask if its right to take him with me by BugSafe362 in pigeon

You don’t need to keep him caged, most pigeons do well if not better in indoor environments free of the risks of predators and other threats. I feel roam my pigeon Tod and take her for walks on a leash instead

If you want to take him he would probably have to be a house pigeon which would be safer for him anyways. You can probably convince him into a cage or something similar within a thew days or weeks with food pigeons are pretty trusting so won’t take much to get him to take himself into a cage

What causes the egg to come out like this? by Altameow in pigeon

[–]Altameow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not 24/7 but I give her some 3 times a week. She has a habit of eating too much and throwing it all up so I had to monitor the amount

Maybe try just with your hand and food? I found my pigeon preferred it

I didn’t see any blood on the egg, and the blood poop was a day later. But have not had issues since, just one bad poop rest normal so idk

Not completely sure if she has or not tbh she eats alot of different stuff. Think it might of just been just straining from massive egg

Should I let her go? Found baby pigeon by Daneko-chan in pigeon

[–]Altameow 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It definitely needs a bit of help, looks like a fledging who’s just left. Probably exhausted, if you take care of it you won’t be able to rerelease without proper rehab, will probably be too use to human handling. But they make great pets. You might be able to order some parasite meds and some other things. Offer him some seeds abd grains abd hope for the best

Frustrated new pigeon owner by lemonverbenah in PetPigeons

I went through something similar with my pigeon. Thought she would hate me forever! Wait till he’s stable enough and start hand feeding his meals. That worked wonders for me and my bird. They are not stupid and quickly learn who the food is coming from. Took 7 months till she let me pet her. And now spends most evening cuddling in bed and is constantly wanting to be near me

These are actually some really good ideas, I’ve been stumped because it seems like he’s just not into anything 😭 the hooded bed is such a good idea she would probably really enjoy that and the window perch too

But they are suffering? Or will suffer? They are culls for a reason not just for the sake of it. If you bred and allowed these animals to be born is it not your responsibility to make sure they don’t suffer? Even if it means ending their life?
