pigeons & doves

Hi, new here. We recently found a pigeon with taped wings. Noticed it when we were having coffee at our 19th floor balcony... It kept walking towards us, following us around. Now it's just asleep. We were wondering whether or not we should take off the tape so it can be free or fly as it...

Sorry to bother, I have another question. I've been told that you can use a good-sized dog crate to house an indoor ringneck dove? Is this an ok idea? This is the crate i'm thinking of...

So i am interested in keeping a small pigeon post in my yard, I'm not sure what pigeons i want to get and have a couple of questions 1. I may move from this house in a year or two, if i want to teach them to home, how do i re train them to fly back to their new post instead of their old one? 2...

Hi does anyone have experience with pigeons and lupron shots? I have a sweet pet pigeon (1.5 years old) who won't stop laying eggs. 30 in the last year. Although there has been no complications so far, I know I need to help her stop for her own health and safety. Years ago I had a parakeet on...

SHE IS DRIVING ME INSANE! I usually love all animals but this one only makes me angry and stressed. I adopted my ringneck dove Norma from an animal shelter as a companion for my other dove Beanie. Beanie is a special needs bird and she has some type of neurological disorder she was most likely...

So, I've been breeding pure white homing pigeons for the past 2 years now, and I've never really asked but always wondered. Why is it that certain breeds of pigeons like homers, rollers, and show birds, don't all home? Because when I started breeding, I believed that all pigeons had the homing...

bad homing ability? hi all, i was thinking of purchasing a pair of bald headed doneks and breeding them but i was told by many people doneks don't have very good homing ability and that if i chose to fly them i would need pigeons with good homing abilities such as turbits or tipplers to fly...

do pigeons sleep on perches or do i have to make the box houses, not sure what they are called. i have so many pigeons i running out of room how do i keep the population down. i have a lot of perches that hang from ceiling of the aviary and i have a lot of ghetto houses i made for them.

hi, i recently bought this hen and i was wondering what breed it is:confused:

Hi, My dovecote is finally erected! I think it looks gorgeous:D Now, the question is what to do next..... wait to see 'if' the adult white homers adopt it, or their youngster who sleeps on the roof of our house adopts it. Mum and Dad do live elsewhere nearby but although their youngster goes...

I was wondering if a male pigeon (he's a pouter and is kind with female pigeons) and a female ringnecked dove would get along in the same cage it would be just the two of them. A book I have been reading, The Pigeon, says that a ringneck pigeon hybrid is possible, but would they get along or...

Hi all How are you? White Maltese pigeon photo http://pigeon-photos.blogspot.com/2010/10/whaite-maltiz-picture.html Thank you M.Hassan

i think im going crazy or maybe this is normal, but lately i noticed that i cant go about my day like i used to do. i always noticed them but now i see them and i even look to see them. ever since i found my baby pigeon jojo, i became obsessed with pigeons. every chance i get at work im stealing...

I have had Stewie (she is doing great btw) since the beginning of February (she was the feral pigeon that flew on my head when I went to get a coffee then decided to come home with me...lol). I am wondering if a ring neck dove would be a good companion? We made Stewie a good size cage...
