Hi, I have recently purchased a house. The owner kept pigeons in the shed and I have no idea how to clean it. I have head that it could contain diseases. Is there a chemical I can use to neutralize any disease that could be present? And what type of mask would I use. Thanks for any help.

Feral Pigeons were looking a place to nest on my balcony, and the few spots they picked first, I threw away the sticks and then bought a box, put it in the corner with cardboard which they found and made a next. Eggs hatched 1-2 weeks ago and the nest is becoming a mess with flies and mites...

Last week we had the first hatchling of our loft. This week has just started and we have 2 new additions and if things go well some more are expected to hatch in coming days. A new set of problems have also cropped up. 1. Feed - so far we've been feeding the birds twice - once in the morning...

Long story short...Pigeon laid 2 eggs, and one eventually went missing and the only egg finally hatched on July 2nd. The picture was on July 5th, only 3 days old and 4 times bigger than the egg. Nest area was clean before, but now the baby is here, the droppings are starting to build and I...

I went to my uncle's place and I took back a water container that is mine (my uncle wasn't using it) BUT it has been sitting outside for like 4 months and it has a lot of algae and green/brown stuff on it. My question, what should I use to clean it? My first thought, dish soap but I read that...

Hello! I've been thinking lately while I look at my doves. What makes them shine? I love it when I clean their cage, give them fresh water and seed, and give them a nice mist bath. Then they look all smooth and clean in a clean enclosure and that really seems to make them look beautiful and...

I have 2 baby pigeons on my balcony. These past couple days they've started walking around playing while the mom is away. I've guessed them to be maybe 3 weeks old. I was wondering if it's OK to clean the mess of poop in their nest if they're on the other side of the balcony?

I talked to someone already, no need to reply on this post.

Hi, I have some pigeons at my hometown, around 15~20. They have a strange tendency of pooping in the water immediately after drinking it!! Also the conditions are pretty hot & humid or dry. So they need to have the privilege of taking a bath whenever they want. Now since I stay out or even if I...

I would appreciate input as to which disinfectants and insecticides to use inside the loft? I will be using shavings on the floor and inside the nest boxes. Thanks, Don.

Hi all, I have a small 2 floor wooden cage for 4 pigeons to stay... my pigeons used to love it! but after a while, since it got really dirty, I kept it outside in the balcony, and forgot about it... Now I want to use it again... But to my horror, I found out that its full of mice dropping etc...
