Hi Little Bird,

I was the one that said plain white bread would be considered empty calories. Just wanted to say that I meant that from a nutritional standpoint. It'll keep you alive, but if that's really all someone eats (human or bird), I'm sure after awhile some health problems would surface from nutritional deficiencies.

But, having said that, I DO agree with you and also Alvin. If bread is all one can feed, it's better than nothing. I'd rather see them get just bread, if that's all there is available, than see them go hungry.

Thanks for looking out for our ferals.

what about hard uncooked white rice?? not me, but this old guy feeds them that and i dont want to say anything and offend him if im not sure????
i posted another thread about the rice but thought i'd ask here too??
i mean, i guess better than nothing but someone else that comes by the pidgey's in the morning before me says she finds a dead one a week and thought that could be it, i sAID it could be A MILLION DIFFERENT THINGS, but, im asking, right????

Hi Moxie, uncooked white rice is definitely not good for pigeons. Wild rice would be ok but plain bird seed is the best. Awhile back, at weddings, people would throw rice out and now many throw out bird seed instead.

Organic brown rice is okay, as long as it is only 2 percent of the whole pigeon mix, and it should be uncooked.
