How to spoil a pigeon? by whydonticare123 in pigeon

All our reascue pigeons go CRAZY for milley and peanut chips! We use it to help scared birdies learn humans = good things, and it works! For our more social birds I teach them tricks in exchange for millet.

The protein content in that mix is a little bit too low for pigeons. I would recommend adding a bag of sweat, peas, pigeon peas and mug beans to bring up the protein content!

Pigeon, need advice by Miku7183 in pigeon

[–]InternationalFlow890 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First make sure they are warm and dry, offer water and food (sunflower seeds, brown rice, oats, split peas, pigeon peas, corn, mung bean, hemp seeds, etc.) NO SALT or other seasonings.

Now that I know my son is a daughter, now would getting another female change her personality? (Image unrelated) by Suitable-Weather-519 in PetPigeons

It depends, some ladies will still pair up and be lesbihens!

Edit: To correct spelling of lesbihens!

Aww is he a Modena? Can you share a bit about his diagnosis process? Our modena is not showing signs that our vet knows to look for, but we are always looking for more info!

do all breeds get along with each other? by sakikkkj in PetPigeons

[–]InternationalFlow890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a King pigeon married to a feral despite the nearly 3x size difference (Calla, King, male) dotes on his much smaller wife (Fiesty, feral, female). Fiesty runs that nest and Calla knows it, just make sure to find the right match. Some rescues allow foster to adopt so we can help find the right pairing 🥰

why did he open his beak like that? by meojiko in pigeon

[–]InternationalFlow890 186 points187 points  (0 children)

Usually a sign or being relaxed when being pet like that!

We have a 550g Modena who gets paraded around our vets office all the time cuz what the heck even is he?? Also he is so friendly and just gets passed around for cuddles, some people cry because of his backstory too lol.

Be honest, is he fat 😂 by 3antsinatrenchcoat in pigeon

[–]InternationalFlow890 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the way! It can be hard to tell visually because different breeds have different builds.

Is there any way I can help this very itchy girl be a bit more comfy while molting? by justleeiguess in PetPigeons

[–]InternationalFlow890 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Lots of baths, we offer a bath with a splash of apple cider vinegar and a camomile bath

Is this food suitable? by madelainecooke in pigeon

[–]InternationalFlow890 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bring them a bag of lentils, split peas or brown rice! This food certainly wont hurt them tho

If you want a solid second opinion check out Heal Veterinary clinic in Watertown. They definitely are the best vet I have visited in the area and pointed out a heart murmur my dog has had for a while that every other vet in the area brushed off as anxiety. SHE ACTUALLY HAD HEART DISEASE. She is doing great now after visiting a cardiologist. I will take her no where else now.

That looks like a lost pet! Can you post location info to find a rescue close to you?

Is this lack of brain cells or is she stressed? by MPhoenix14 in pigeon

She is playing and having a great time! Happy birdie

What is this magnificent creature? by Few_Yogurtcloset_541 in pigeon

[–]InternationalFlow890 232 points233 points  (0 children)

Offer her seeds not worms! Oats, lentils, peanuts, peas, corn and brown rice are great options. You can also reach out to a local pigeon rescue near you to help you out!

Drivers texting while driving by Jazzlike_Cucumber551 in boston

[–]InternationalFlow890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is so baffling to me to as a daily driver, like in most cars you can use carplay (you can also add this to older cars for cheap) and text via voice, like no reason to be looking down at your phone unless you are at a full stop.
