Satinettes FINALLY have homes.......


A few days ago I posted about the Old German Owls that needed homes. Then I eventually posted that someone was taking them. Well, apparently that fell through. Not sure why. SO..............after another week of worrying about the poor babies, Pigeonmama has agreed to take some of them and a local lady is taking the rest. I went and picked them up today and they are now safe in my loft until tomorrow when some will be shipped to Maine and the others delivered to a local person. I promised Pigeonmama I would post some pics........so here they are......
You'll notice that two of them are the "beakless" type. Oh, and the little guy with his mouth open?? I stuck his nose (as well as the others) in the water so they would know where it is. Guess I almost drowned him.......didn't mean to. He was all right though. I"m so used to dealing with Homers and their beak is long enough to stick in the water without getting their notrils in it too........

Renee, all I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you, for saving these beautiful, precious little pigeons. The last picture is my favorite - they look like little pigeon dolls.

Knowing your tender heart, I'll bet it is hard giving them up but at least we can keep up with those that go to Daryl.

You're a good lady, Charlie Brown.

There are a couple that are just adorable. When we were putting them in the loft, my husband was holding them for the pics and he just sat each one on a perch and they just sat there and watched us. A homer would have taken off like a wild thing.........LOL. A couple were still out in the aviary after it started getting dark and I just went out a picked them both up and sat them inside. They are SO sweet..........

Oh My God, They are so cute! Maggie is right they do look like little pigeon dolls. I had never even seen a picture of this type of pigeon until I joined this forum. Bless your heart Renee, you found good homes for all of them.

Pigeonmama, which of these lil doll babies are you adopting?

She don't know which ones she's getting. I just picked them up today and they get shipped tomorrow, so I don't even know which ones she's getting. LOL. I'm going to send the two with short beaks to her. I was told they are a pair. I think their bands say 2003 and he has raised a few babies off of them, so I don't want to split them up. The others are all a guess..........

Feather,
I'm getting the ones who want to move to Maine I really don't know for sure, other than the one pair, who's coming. It doesn't matter. They all need a home and someone to love them. That, I can do just fine.
Daryl

Well done! I know those sweeties will be glad once they are settled in their new homes. Those tiny beaks are tricky - not much to work with when giving pills.
