I just adopted this little one yesterday. I think she's a German Owl. She was pulled from the nest as a little squab because she had canker. It took weeks of vet care for her to get over the canker. Now she's a squeaker (still peeps instead of coos) and loves to nibble on fingers and vibrate her...

So, i have a a spotted dove rescued from my backyard when it was still very young and and raised it until she almost got all of her spots on around her neck.

Hey Pigeon Talkers, I came across a pigeon at an airsoft range about 3 weeks ago. It appeared to be without parents and the club president said it had been there for a few days by itself. We dropped in to see our friend who raises pigeons, who estimated it to be about 2-3 weeks old and gave us...

On April 20th a client at the animal hospital I work at came in with a 5 day old bird (based on pin feathers) that was in really bad shape. It looked like it got attacked but a cat. So we took it in and brought it back to health and after a few days we realized it is a pigeon. I was all set to...

Hi, We're looking for a new home for our pigeon Birdo. I found him last summer on my front doorstep in Brooklyn and hand-fed him until he learned to eat seeds. We tried to release him once he became more self-sufficient, but he kept returning to the apartment and flying in through our back...
