Hello everyone! My current orphaned pigeons are 4 weeks old this week. I have been caring for them since they were about 2 -3 days old. These have been my healthiest, most energetic baby pigeons ever. Most normal poop I've ever seen, super appetites, and prettiest feathers. Last week (week...

I found these two babies that fell out of their nest and I know they were brothers because I have seen them in the nest together before. They are about two weeks old. They seemed kinda sick so I took them to a vet and he said one was sick and the other was just very weak because he was really...

Hello everyone I found this beautiful little baby trying to run away from a cat this morning, some of her feathers at the back are a little scuffed up, but thankfully there's no blood or anything. I called a wildlife rescue, unfortunately the woman wasn't very helpful, she told us to put her...

Hello, I found a seemingly teenage pigeon 2 days ago. She has all her feathers on her body and around her head (seems to still be growing new ones right below beak near the chest area). She can't fully fly yet though, just a few feet at a time. I've been trying to feed her but she won't eat. I...

Hi pigeon biz, thank you for being here for these little guys For the past several weeks I have watched 2 pigeons hatch and grow to be beautiful juvenile birds; they are only missing their tail feather before they can fly. The mother only visits them now to feed them. Yesterday, a cleaning crew...

Hello everyone! I have 11 white homing pigeons. I found one of them dead behind the loft door this morning and I think it was the mother of the 2 squeakers. I think it was the mother because it looks like the one that was with the squeakers most of the time. The father always stands in the...

Hi all, I found a feral fledgling about 4 weeks old. For simplicity, I'm calling it a 'her'. I've got her warm and Ive been rehydrating her... BUT I CAN'T GET HER TO EAT. It's been about 18 hrs now. I've got some millet mix (for budgies) with grit and crumbled peanuts in one bowl and...

When I went out to my loft today I found a squab on the floor. I think he must have fallen out of the nest. I'm not sure how old he is, he's still mostly bald with prickly little feathers all over. His crop feels full, but I'm not sure if that's because he's only been down there for a day...

Hi Sorry if this shows up twice - my original didn't seem to post... On Friday, 3 days ago, I received a baby pigeon whose nest was destroyed and its clutch-mate killed when someone moved an air conditioning unit. I estimate the baby was about 5 days old when received, so about 7-8 days old...
