Loving indoor home,open for needy pigeons,doves.......

[prophecy]

The weather is holding us up.We can't seem to get the weather to cooperate on both ends at the same time.Its either too hot there,or messed up here.The wait is killing me. I really want to meet them.
We are on opposite sides of the country,(i am in pa, she is in ca)so it is a long shipping time for the birds.We want to minimise stress on them,with decent weather so they don't overheat/chill.

Oh---bummer. I agree, it is always best to ship when it is not hot... which is less stress on them and US too, for that matter... I worried sick until Journey was in my hands... I know how you feel!

Thanks for the update...

I am sending a memo- to Mother Nature to behave... I hope she listens... It will be SO worth the wait, and I hope you'll post back with pictures of the new additions!!

Sorry to say Steph that I've not heard back from Sharon in NJ Maybe she found a way around the landlord problem. In anycase - I didn't want you to think I'd forgotten. You're so generous and loving to open your home and heart And what a fabulous set-up too!

Whatever pijis find their way into your home will be sooooooo lucky

thanks dezirrae.I heard back from the lady in CA,we are working real hard on getting them here.A little closer each time.Let me know what happens with sharon's birds will you? The offer still extends to her if she needs a safe,loving home for them to live.

I really do not see what the problem is, the temps have been good all across the US, of course you would want them sent out on a monday or tues, so look at the forcast. you look good, high of 72.....so ship them monday. I got two birds from TX and I live in VA, they were shipped in the afternoon and where in my post office at 6am the next morning. I went and picked them up from the post office which is best.

I have a lot of birds that need homes. I also have live bird shipping boxes ready to go. Let me know if you still have space available.

Thanks

I'll try to make this short, last year +, my husband brought home a 10 day old squab. Needless to say we raised it, tried to turn her loose at about 5-6 months old, she refused to fly away and kept returning to our shoulders. We brought her back home and have had her ever since. She is wonderful, and very tame. She gets out every day, cage cleaned and fed, and uses that time to fly around a bit and land on our shoulders. She has laid several eggs, and in the summer we take her outside to fly, which she enjoys, but does not allow me to get to far away from her. Then my husband brought me another pigeon home that has a broken wing, we attempted to tape it the best we could, but after removing the tape, it still hangs down further than the other, and I'm not sure how well he/she will be able to fly outside again, and the weather is too cold to turn him out now, after being in the warm for the past 5 weeks. Due to circumstances now, I am on overload with too much going on in my life, and am finding it difficult to care for all the animals that I have, and all the other responsibilities. I noticed that you live in Altoona, and I am in Somerset, if you are interested in adopting any more I would be glad to deliver them to you. I am really interested in having them a good home where they will be happy. Thanks so much.
