Hello, all. I picked up a wood pigeon with a dragging wing a couple of weeks ago. She's recovering and is slowly getting movement back in her wing. The vet advised I should put her in a larger enclosure, so I've made a makeshift aviary in a trailer for the time being. It's large enough that...

Hello everyone, I have decided to build a loft/aviary for my 5 pigeons. I research online for a few days looking for ideas that best fit my conditions and benefit the birds and I came up with a loft aviary in one open space rather than the box loft with windows that many people have. The...

We rescued an abandoned squeaker pigeon during a heat wave last summer. His name is Baby Jack. He's now about seven months and needs a home. He reminds me very much of the pigeon just caught at the Ground Zero Memorial -- he's very people oriented but can be a brat! Because he's so used to...
