What about a single person having a single pigeon, and the person needs to run to the store, or go for a walk, or go to a friends house for an hour or so -- Will the Pigeon be happier and feel more secure and at peace going WITH their person (as long as it is being kept safe and protected from any and all other elements, people, and animals), rather than "staying home alone"??
@@flashlitestriker4028 If your pigeon is bonded to you, then they will always wants to follow you and be with you. You’re pigeon probably isn’t used to traveling and the outdoors, so bringing it with you might stress it out; however, you can work on slowly desensitizing it to the sights, sounds, and experiences outside of your home. That way, your pigeon won’t be scared and can travel around with you without any issues.
@@nikonnikiforoff Usually not since they are bigger birds and they poo off to the side. If you have a pigeon that often likes to sit on your head, then they might get poop onto your hair occasionally, but I’ve heard that you can train them to sit on your shoulder instead of your head if you want to avoid this.
Ah bless❤ thank you for your info. Was a bit worried. I have mourning doves in an aviary and I saw a patch on one about an inch in diameter. I did then notice new pins forming under the skin. Other than that all healthy. Thanx again
@@patsih883 Maybe. I say it heavily depends on the owner and how much they provide and do for their birds. Most birds in captivity are captive bred and don’t know life outside of that environment, so they won’t miss it or be sad like a wild born one forced to live in captivity.
I have three juvenile pigeons, they are being hand fed a nutrient filled slurry in a syringe atm. How do I know when they’re ready to begin eating on their own?
@@whenyoutrybutstillfail505 Usually, they are weaned at around 30 days old. They should pretty much have their adult feathers at this point. You can start by keeping a bowl of seeds in their cage to encourage them to peck at it. If they are at least 2 weeks old, then you can feed them from the syringe but can also introduce them to seeds. You can soak seeds overnight and use the bottle feeding method to get them to eat. There are videos on RU-vid about this that you can check out to help you!
Great vid as always 😉 Used to have a leopard gecko that always ate crickets. Had to buy a bag of a dozen every week, so this would've helped if I still had her. Looking great as always Aila 👍🏻

Can you make a vid on how to get ur pigeon to stop biting you bc my pigeon lay in fertilize egg and it broke into yolk and she sit on it and I. Try to take it out coz it stink but she bit me all time
This is natural behavior in pigeons when they are defending their nest. The biting could be avoided if the pigeon saw you as their mate, but that would usually mean keeping only one bird so that they bond to you and not another pigeon. You could probably use a towel to grab your pigeon off the nest to remove the broken egg if you want to avoid getting bit.
Got my first bird few days ago so i watched a lot of video recently, this one is the first to give me the real answers to my questions, thanks ! your birds are beautifuls
@@angryrabidfoxes7380 It depends on how much time outside of work you can spend with the pigeon. If you can’t spend some hours with it, then you should have at least 2 birds so that they will keep each other company.
How long, on average, should i hold their food bowl until my pigeon eats out of it? Should i hold it until they approach? Or hold it for like 15 minutes and take the food away and try again a bit later?
@@adamlorton8923 Ideally, you should wait however long it takes for them to work up the courage to come to you. That’s why you want to make sure that they are hungry before doing this so that they don’t ignore you. It may take longer than 15 minutes for a skittish bird, so you’ll just have to be patient.
I still have my 4 pigeons and love them. They make quite a bit of noise at night, but they're usually pretty chill 😅 I also have a baby ROBIN I just rescued 3 weeks ago and he pokes me in the eye in the morning when he wants his food! 😂 Looking great as always Aila! Hope you've been well

Hi, what makes you scared of it? Females tend to be gentler than males and not attack you. My male pigeon likes to run up to me and start biting my hands when he sees them. It hurts because his beak is sharp which makes me hesitant to hand feed him sometimes, but there is nothing to be scared of if your bird isn’t biting or slapping you. They are pretty easy to handle and live with. If you want some care tips, you can check out my other pigeon videos. I have ones for cage setup, basic care, and training!
@@BubblyPetz1 hi I got a question so right 1 day ago I lost my male pigeon so we got a new one today. But the girl hasn't made a sound so today as we put the new male in the cage with the female the female is scared of him but a few seconds later the male starts chasing the female and forcing himself onto her but the female keeps running away from him. Is it normal???!
@@karabo6325 It is normal courting behavior. It’s called driving. Your female pigeon may have been bonded to the male you lost, so it is scared of the unfamiliar new one. It will just take some time for her to accept him, and they should eventually bond.
I actually have a male that is almost pure color and he sings even better than the RU-vid singers. He sings like canary videos like wild birds, and like the sounds i taught him
I only now just heard of grocery stores selling frogs to eat. That is so odd and freaky! Surely, that would be against the law? The look of those frogs scare me though. If I saw them in a grocery store, I would run right out!
The blue factor canary looks like an indigo bunting and the green canary is a forest canary which is a different species from Africa and not really a breed of Atlantic canary. Though canary do appear a grayish blue or greenish yellow color with the right composition of base color and markings.

Hi, I'm planning on getting a pigeon in the near future. You had mentioned it's important to let them out for exercise time. How do you get them back in the cage?
If they have a favorite nest spot outside the cage and become aggressive if you are reaching your hands around there, then you can grab them pretty easily. Otherwise, you can totally black out the room and make it dark and quickly grab them since they can’t see very well in the dark, and their eyes take longer than ours to adjust to the dark. If you are able to train your pigeon to step up or a command to go back to their cage, then that is even better because they won’t be stressed out when it’s time to go back, but mine was well trained, and even he could not willingly be placed inside the the cage, so I had to resort to the first two methods.
Yeah, that is the ideal. My pigeon no longer has a cage and is free roam just because of how large he is. My smaller birds do have a cage since it’s easier to provide one large enough for them to fly around in, and since I have so many, it would be difficult to keep up with the cleaning if they were free roam like my pigeon. I have cats too, and the smaller birds would be more likely to escape the room and get hurt if they were out 24/7. I know a lot of parrots benefit from having a cage to be used as like their own little space too, but as long as their owner let’s them free roam most of the day, then I think it’s fine for them to have a cage.
@@BubblyPetz1 well the male bird doesn’t like me lol the female (at least the ones I’ve decided are male and female as I have no idea lol) is pretty chill so she might be easier. Just left the male some seeds on my window ledge as he likes to sit there while she is nesting and he flew to the open window then puffed his chest out and started shouting at me haha!
@@rubyredphoto Pfft, haha, he probably thinks you’re going to steal his lady’s heart with all those seeds. The males typically coo and act more “aggressive” so your guess was probably right regarding their genders.
No, they can be cuddly, but it’s usually the ones that have been hand raised that will be comfortable cuddling and being pet. Ones not hand raised may be very difficult if not impossible to become cuddly.
Thanks for watching! They don’t chew like parrots do, but I’d still advise you to get a few different toys for them to interact with. The most they’d do is try to pull stuff apart.
Thanks for watching! I’ll have to make a feeding video in the future! I’ve always wanted a pac-man, but I don’t have to space for another setup at the moment.
Was going to say the same! Best to only use marine silicone, as the others contain antifungals and sometimes other trace elements which won't directly cause any obvious issues, but you are still slowly poisoning whatever is in the tank if you use normal silicone
Looking great as always! As does your pigeon! Love your little pidgey 😊 My male pigeon bites lately everytime I hold him, but other times he makes purring noises like a cat 😅
@@kovenant7 I’m not too sure since I haven’t had chickens before. I’d think soil that’s not too damp and has plenty of worms, springtails, pill bugs, and other decomposers would help to break down the waste and keep the odor to a minimum, but I know chickens produce a lot of waste and like to eat bugs so I’m not sure how successful it’d be longterm. I’d look into poultry forums like “BackYard Chickens” to see what other people use in their setups, and you could probably get an answer from someone there with more knowledge.
