Hi teebo,

Thank you for caring for this bird.

Perhaps once he gets the weight back on and is able to act his normal healthy self, he will be able to let you know to stand back or wing slap you or something.

Give him time to heal, and feel better, IF then he is still very tame, then perhaps you can make that decision.

[teebo]

yes,im going to,because for a feral pigeon,he does not act mean at all,eats from my hand,looks at me, while i talk to him, has no fear at all.

[teebo]

pigeons are on there way to maryjane,should arrive tomorrow in cali,by 3 pm. im so so happy that they are going to a great home.

[TAWhatley]

Thanks for sending them, Teebo. Can't wait to hear from Mary Jane when they arrive.

I'm waiting with my fingers crossed! I am ready any time tomorrow to run and get them. Then pictures will follow! Teebo says that two of them seem to have paired up so that will leave the half-blind one looking for a mate, which I'm sure he or she will be able to find as I have some unpaired pijies at the moment. Can't wait to get them, I'll let you all know as soon as they arrive.

[maryjane]

Still waiting....I called at two and they hadn't arrived yet, will call at four and make sure. The lady I spoke with said they will call me immediately when they arrive, and she would keep an eye out especially for them. I said, you can't miss them, it's three pigeons in a box lol. She said they get live birds in now and then and are very strict about calling the person immediately. So I'm sitting with the phone in my hand! I'll let you all know as soon as I'm back with them!

4:00
Just called and they said they're not there yet, but the next truck will be in at 4:30 and they're open until six. So now I'm a tiny bit worried but I'm sure it'll be fine. He couldn't tell me why they weren't there by three, said the plane might have been late or whatnot. So still waiting!

[teebo]

maryjane ,im worried i havent heard from you its 7pm here .please contact me.PLEASE,PLEASE CONTACT ME

[maryjane]

I just wrote that at four my time, seven your time. That's all I know so far, what I wrote above. I'll let you know as soon as they call. Actually I'm just going to go over there right now, it's 4:22 so Tina you can call me if you want at 4:40, I emailed you too.

[maryjane]

Tina please call me immediately, I need the tracking number. They were not at my local post office, they called a nearby town where everything goes through, and they have not seen them yet today. They said they must be on their way from San Francisco's airport/post office, running late, but they can't track them without the tracking number, which I don't have. The clerk at the post office here took my cell phone number and gave them her cell phone number so they will call her as soon as they come in as well as calling me, just in case. The other post office (where they're expected) is open until eleven tonight. I am three hours behind you in time. Please call me, collect if you need to, 707-849-4924. I am so pissed off right now I can't hardly see straight, but was assured they will be fine. Shoulda seen me at the post office. "THESE ARE LIVE BIRDS, NOT PACKAGES!!!!!!! THEY NEED TO EAT AND DRINK!!!" I felt like shaking someone until they gave me someone who was in charge. I still feel very frustrated and can't do anythign without the tracking number. I don't have your phone number. Please call.

Oh MJ, I know how you feel now.
It happened once to me, I shipped some birds and they arrived 24 hours late, 48 hours of travel in total. They were all fine, just hungry and thirsty.
Your birds will be fine, just try to track them, but I am sure they will arrive the latest tomorrow morning.

Let us know, please.

Reti

[maryjane]

Thanks Reti, Teebo actually mailed out the paperwork to me today so we don't have the tracking number right now, unfortunately. I am just waiting for them to call me from the post office. Hopefully it will be tonight, and I will just turn the outside light on for them to eat, drink, and settle in since it will be dark. I'm sure they will be just fine. It's just amazing that this can happen, when they were due here by three o'clock and might not arrive until eleven. Oh well, what can I do?

[teebo]

im so angry... .if they are not there by ,tonight,i am contacting someone and complaining.the poor babies are probably so so scared.im so upset.

[maryjane]

The lady who helped me at my post office here (they're closed), just called and said there is a truck coming into the other post office at seven, and gave me the "secret" number to call to get to the dock and who to talk to. Then another truck is in at nine so the same thing at nine if they're not on the seven truck. Don't worry, Teebo, they'll be okay. I can't believe this lady is actually taking her own personal time to call me and call them. Thank goodness some people are still helpful and caring out there.

[maryjane]

Can't get through to the numbers for the post office....they are to the docking bay and she said it's possible no one will answer. I've been trying all night. I don't even know which post office it is in the other town, there are three and none of them have numbers listed. I guess they will call me in the morning. I'm pretty frustrated and going to wait until eleven just in case and then go to bed to be ready for the morning.
