can't find owner of IF-2095-PAOF-09

If you care about the bird, DO NOT i repeat DO NOT cut off the band. Only if the birds leg is swollen and the band is cutting off circulation should the band be cut. If you visit the if lost and found bird section it states that birds with no bands are wild birds. Pigeons raised in captivity are raised on grain,or pellets even,they do not know how to fend for themselves.Or should I say most because rarely some do. As to your question about not releasing him,you are right he (or she) will eventually return home. This bird was trained.I will not go into detail anymore on that (I have my own opinion on this bird). Keep him/her or give it for adoption or let it go (with BAND) once the bird recovers, this is your choice.

I've found a home for him! I've seen pictures of their loft and wow - that is some swanky bird-housing they've built.

I can't say enough how much I've enjoyed and appreciated everyone's input. My good intentions wouldn't have gotten me very far without your quick replies and support.

I wish all of you and your birds all the best.

That is good news. You did tell them that he CANNOT fly outside of a pen because he would fly back to his old home right?

Great job on saving him and doing the right thing and asking allot of questions. min
