Hi, I have recently rescued 2 ringneck(and hoping male and female) doves. They were kept at a co-op for a year and a half and in a TINY cage :( So I wanted to give them a better happier life. I have them in my barn at the moment in a beautiful enclosure about 3 feet wide 4 feet high and 2.5...

Hello! My name is Andrea! Im new to the forum. I have always liked pigeons but have never had the chance to own one.

I live in Virginia and the temperatures have really been hot. My pigeons are not laying eggs that much right now. Before last month they were laying like crazy and I had to start using fake eggs to controll the population. Is it the heat, the time of year or do you think it is something else...

I am interested in starting a small loft of pigeons just for the fun of it and maybe racing in the future. I live in central Missouri and it gets pretty hot in the summer. Do pigeons do ok in the heat or would I need some sort of cooling system for their loft.

Dear Friends Weather is hot in Egypt The bird suffers from the danger of warming What is the best insulator of heat that can be used in the loft to resist the hot weather without the need for the use of air conditioners thank you for help

It is only about 92 degrees now, but the next two months usually tip the 100's all the time. I'm just wondering if the pigeons are okay in high heat. They have plenty of fresh cool water, but it is very hot outside. I figure they're okay, but I thought I'd ask anyways.

So what are most doing to keep your birds cool in a 100 plus temps ? Besides fresh cool water twice a day, a cool bath and shade , oh and a box fan is there anything else short of air -conditioning . I don't raise flyers either . :confused:

I've noticed this past week my birds are panting after flying...I'm concerned about a possible resp problem...I must note that temps have jumped up 10-15 degrees lately....they are flying in weather no hotter than 90. The take flight and do thier thing as normal, but when they come in they are...
