How big is their cage?
THIS IS MY QUESTION TOO.How big is their cage?
A predator doesn't have to get IN the cage.......just AROUND the cage. We caught a cat walking around on our aviaries the other night and I kept wondering why my birds didn't want to come out of the loft........now I know. Like the others said............the size of the cage and where the cage is might tell us something.Any possibilty a predator is getting into the cage?
(My apologies to the forum members who may deem the question to be "sarcastic" or "out of line").
Grimaldy, Do you think that maybe you could ever just come in with a nice comment, and try to be helpful for a change, instead of being difficult and argumentative. Please don't turn yet another thread into sarcasm and arguing. Your signature isn't funny either. It's sarcastic and ridiculous, and makes you look the same.Strange!
The initial posting said that a piece of the doves wing was torn off. Don't you agree?
There is no question at all that anything that could take off a piece of the wing would frighten it; it would probably frighten you too.
(my apologies to those members that see this observation as "sarcastic" or "so out of line".)
Terry, give me a break. Try reading what he says and how he says it. And his ridiculous sarcastic line at the end. If you don't think he's being argumentative and sarcastic, as usual, then it's because you just don't want to see it. You say you can understand his being a pain based on other threads lately. Well, that doesn't give him a reason to be a pain now. WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING IS TELLING HIM TO KNOCK IT OFF. NOT DEFENDING HIM. His sarcasm isn't needed but you seem to overlook that. You seem to see what you want to see when you want to see it.I am really, really, really tired of the nitpicking here on Pigeon-Talk. Grimaldy is correct in that the original post said a piece of the wing was missing.
I do understand that Grimaldy is being a bit of a pain here, but I can also understand why based on other threads here lately.
Some of you (have a look at the wing clipping thread) aren't much less argumentative or much kinder than Grimaldy, so let's all just cool it here and try to help the bird and the member posting about the bird and quit with the "sniping". Please and thank you!

Apparently it's not all that difficult.Quote:

I would think it difficult for a predator outside of a cage to tear off a piece of a bird's wing inside a cage.??

Grimaldy,* I guess I am at a loss to understand this rush to put words into the original poster's mouth simply to justify Lovebird's comment that a predator need not get into the cage, just be around the outside.
** Of course a predator could reach though a cage, but that is not what Lovebirds said.
