[Mindy]

What do yo mean its a freakin pigeon breed for food????So your saying its alright that they had to die in that manner? Is that what your raising your pigeons for, FOOD? That is the worst statement you could possible make, are you kidding me????

For you to make that statement you haven't learned anything. mindy

It is what it is, life. Back to your question. the bird's feathers have not completely come in at one month, also his wing strenght is not up to par. So time is what is needed to train your bird. keep him fed and watered, when he is ready he will come out of the nest. Seeing as how this bird has suffered a tramatic experience, it will be a little slower than most. Let the bird teach you when it is ready. When it starts sitting on the top perches in the loft then it is ready for you to open the loft but let him leave on his time not yours. You show patience and you may have a great bird. This may take two to three months.

Now for the rest of us, He posted asking for help not judgement. I know it is hard sometimes but I for one cannot throw stones. I made too many mistakes and yes some of those mistakes cause suffering. We can't take it back only learn and move on.

sinister357 it is time to learn and move on. Please do not be so defensive, one cannot gain if always in defense but with time will lose.

God Bless all,
Tony

Your pigeons need a different life, because obviosly you aren't capable to take care of them. I have a life. You need to grow up and learn before taking care of pigeons.SINISTER!!! Did you enjoy your vacation??? mindy

Sinister .. you are getting exactly the reactions that you should have gotten and should have expected. This is a pro-pigeon forum and not one that just blows them off because some of them are bred for food. You made a bad mistake that cost the lives of your pigeons. You need to learn from this and quit lashing out at members here. Likewise, our members need to quit lashing out at you. Nothing helpful or useful is being accomplished at the rate we are going, so let's try to turn this very, very sad situation into something helpful and useful to others or it's closed the next time I'm on.

Seems to be soo true. Sinister, sometimes when we do something stupid we compound it by not gracefully (or as gracefully as we can muster) owning up to it. We've all done something dumb to one degree or another. How we handle it afterwards sometimes makes all the difference. I debated coming to your defense or not before typing my earlier post, went back and forth, because I agree with the criticism you recieved. I was hoping to find grace and instead found youthful defensiveness on your part. Good luck with your birds. Keystonepaul
