Aauugghh! What a disaster!

Do you have a little thermometer you could keep next to the baby? That's what I do when I use a heatlamp or heating element.

[Luna the Wolf]

I think I have one somewhere, I'll rummage around for it.

[Jay3]

How's the baby doing?

[Luna the Wolf]

She's doing good. I haven't seen her breathing from her mouth, and she tried some seeds I offered her.

[Jay3]

Glad s/he's doing well. Have you heard anything about the other birds, or checked with the person you got them from?

[Luna the Wolf]

I emailed the guy I got them from and he said he'd keep an eye out for them, but I'm a little worried as we've been having severe thunderstoms here lately.

[Jay3]

That's too bad. Hope they're not lost.

If it's any consolation for you some people on this forum have had pigeons come back up to 6 months later.

[Luna the Wolf]

Whoa, that's half a year!
They've made it all the way back there before, so hopefully they can make it again.

[Luna the Wolf]

I got the screen up on the window. Hopefully they don't try to fly into it!

[Jay3]

What did you use for screening?

[Luna the Wolf]

Hardware mesh.

[Jay3]

I don't think they'll fly into it. They'll see it. I have never had mine fly into it. The hardware mesh will be great for them.

[Luna the Wolf]

They love it. :3 They were all sitting in the window sill when I went out there.
Also, I think I may have seen my pigeons. I saw two white ones mixed in with a flock we passed. Couldn't tell if they had bands.

[Jay3]

If they like the open window, the'd LOVE an aviary. If you don't fly your birds, you really do need an aviary. They need to be out in the air and sunlight. One little window isn't enough. It's unfair to them to confine them in a dark shed all the time. An aviary isn't hard to make.
