attack

ok so i posted a thread a couple days ago about my pigeon snowball's hawk attack. She has recovered really well, she is as good as new. although her personality has changed quite a bit. Snowball has always been bonded to me. But since her attack she has been a lot more "clingy" i can't leave the...

I let my pigeon free fly at the park today, and everything was going good until a hawk came out of nowhere and snatched her up. The people at the park were screaming and the hawk dropped her in some bushed. I ran to get her but the hawk came back before i could find her. My bird got away and...

I was fixing up my whole loft over these past few days and I must have made the new door a tad too big because when I bent down to fix something on the ground I heard one of my cock birds fly above me and out. I immediately looked up and saw that it was my red cock bird that took off. He is...

Hi, I've been searching the internet for a while now about this. This morning I heard my dog running around like mad outside, I rushed out to see her trying to get at a pigeon who was fluttering about before hiding behind a plant pot. I quickly grabbed my dog and locked her inside the house...

Last night my boyfriend found a turtleneck dove - minus lots of feathers on our door step. He decided to keep it in a darkened box until i came home from work - and then we gave it some lukewarm water - and heat (hot water bottle wrapped in lots of towels) I have taken the poor thing to a vet...

Yesterday, I came home from school and immediately checked to see if my young pigeons were home yet. They've only been flying for about 1 week and a half yet they are venturing far out. Anyways, since they weren't inside, I decided to take a stroll and perhaps see if I could spot my two pigeons...

Hi all, Ivor recently found a sick and injured pigeon, young adult, hiding under a car. Took it home. The guy had been attacked...lost all tailfeathers and has lesions on his back. Also...his chest has a big wound, all the skin is gone and there is a scab about 2"x3" to the left of his...

Hello all! I recently adopted four homing pigeons from a moving friend of a friend who had nowhere else to leave them. They are currently kept in a huge cage, and I have read multiple care sheets. I also received tips from my friend. Based on their behaviors, it seems that there are two pairs...

Hi. How long does it take pigeons to get friendly?! Ive had my baby, Ralph, since he was about 18 days old. He is now a little over 2 months old. About 2 weeks ago I got him a girlfriend who ended up being older and male and would pick on him. So I returned her (him) and got another pij the...

Hi all. Am between a rock and a hard place. I have a patient, survivor of attempted hawk attack who Ivor found and saved. His external injury is a small gash beneath left eye. I took him home, treated him, washed the wound, applied silvadene to it, and medicated him w/ cipro and medacam...

Hi guys! I just wanted to stop by quickly and ask for some advice - Airbus got attacked by a cat last week and he's got a bad leg and our vets are useless! At first the vet refused to see him as he's a pigeon but eventually they agreed and I went in and saw some vet who didn't even know how to...

Please give me some advice. I had two pigeons I've kept since they where very young and i was very found of them. Today i let them out and stood by them as always. A halwk came and grabed Homer. Homer got away and fled to my nabors tree. Then his mate followed him and started to peck at the...

Hi all. My parrots freaked while they were hanging out at the living room window today....usually that means they spotted a hawk. I went outside on the sidewalk immediately...looked around...saw a few pidgies high, high up in the sky...then saw some pigeonfeathers descending from the...
