So, I'm a very new bird owner. The dove appeared on my doorstep about 2 1/2 months ago, clearly domestic, very well behaved. Since I've had him, I have had no reason to think he was sick (because of inexperience), but today I was looking up some toys I could get him and I came across a list of...

Hey PT, :D I'm new to the forum (It's great!) and was wondering if there's any other NZ or Canterbury Keepers here (I've met a few already :).) Because I'm new to pigeon keeping (see other thread) I don't know much about pigeon clubs and supplies in the area so It'd be awesome if you guys could...

I found a pigeon July this year and raised him by hand, he's now all grown up (4-5 months old) and decided that I'm his mate. He's called Frida, after Frida Kahlo, as I was convinced he was a she :) Frida now lives in the house with us and goes out when we're working outside in the garden...

The backstory: I took in a rescue bird a few weeks ago that will probably never fly again. (The full story is here) I hope to be getting him a roommate on Saturday at a local poultry swap. I've been doing a ton of research and homework since the wonderful world of pigeons fell unexpectedly into...
