    I have a male homing pigeon who I rehabilitated because he could not walk, had lice, and a gaping wound on his chest. I contacted the owner and he didn't want him, so for the past 3 1/2 months. Recently, we adopted another pigeon (a female) and all has been well for the past week or so. But...

    Hi, I'm from Venezuela and there are no products available here. I'm not sure whether I can find apple cider vinegar here as Venezuela is in a huge economic and social crisis. The thing is, I rescued a pigeon 5 months ago when its mother didn't return to the nest. Everything has been more or...

    I raise this question only because I would like to know the answer. I regularly feed my downtown flock in the neighorhood park. I spread seed every day and they gobble it up. During the winter they tend to stay out of sight and get to it when they get to it. In the summer though they hang out in...

    Ok so I have spent the last hour trying to understand everything about genetics. I am trying to get some idea of what my babies (currently eggs) might look like.

  12. I found a pigeon or dove - now what?
    While reading Pt I look out to the balcony and see a banded pigeon in front of my bird room window. Wow, he probably saw my birds and thought it a good place to rest. I put food and water on the balcony and left the door open so I can try and catch her. Well, this sweetie flew right into my...

    Hi everyone. I came home yesterday to find my young male white homer a bloody mess. I took him to the vet for x-rays, etc. He has a completely broken wing and the bullet went in a line through from his wing to his chest and punctured his crop so that seeds are actually coming out from the wound...

    Lewis went into the laundry room tonight to change Honey's and Cosmos' cages. He called to me and said Honey had not pooped all day long - zilch, nada, etc. It was pretty alarming because we've never seen that unless they had an egg and she doesn't. She has been eating fine and seemed well...
