Oh man you are good, I loved it man i really really love it, I am alone and depressed, a lot happened in life, I need a pigeon to rehabilitate me, I want to say thank you, you are a good man sir, hats off to you,
I used to have a pigeon that I found after she fell out of her nest. She was too young to fly and I had to hand feed her for a few days until she figured out she could feed herself. She came to me when she felt like it, nothing like this. I had her out with me in the car once; and, when I stopped for gas, she got impatient, jumped out the window and flew away. I had never caged her; so, I knew she might want to take off some day. As it turns out, she was at home waiting for me when I got back. I know it was a she because she laid several sets of eggs, all infertile. Being free like that, she was a lot of fun and companionship.
Lovely story! I handraised a white homer 5 yrs ago...I had to pull the baby 6days old from the nest box, because she had injuries being bullied by the flock....I named her Rosey. She flew the 1st day Mothers day. It was special. I owned a candle business since 1998. I brought her to the shop at 9 months old to be in a commercial for the shop. I tossed her and said, "spread your wings today and fly to The Candle Cottage" ...she flew right back to me as always, but I had to go inside to finish commercial. I ..left her on the porch... could kick myself for doing that....I thought i'd only be a second. I went back out and she was gone... to this day people still message me thinking they saw Rosey....I had flyers everywhere. I was so sad to have to drive home without her....I get home and wanted to lay my hand in ...her coconut shell bed and pray. When I put my hands in the shell to my surprise she had laid 2 eggs. It was mixed emotions. I was sad she was gone and for the 1st time confirmed she was a she...I think someone took her, because she would never leave my side. Today for the 1st time opportunity i am picking up 2 ...1week old baby Homer's. I am ready to try again. Keep in touch on my youtube channel. I will be posting and vlogging our journey. ❤💃🕊
It's so beautiful to see dogs playing with your pigeon. Recently i made friends with a couple of wild collares doves, still i can't pet them because they are still a little bit wary :) Thank you for this video.
Amazing video. Lovely pigeons and dogs you have. I love how you treat your pigeon as an actual pet. My Pigeon PJ is young @ 11 weeks. Still learning her recall. But recently she’s been going on flight for few hours from the house. But always comes home before dark and before bad weather. Thinking of getting her a friends so they are go on adventures together and look out for each other.
Starting a pigeon family isn't always the best idea xD Pigeons eggs take 3 weeks to hatch, 3-5 weeks to raise the baby, and then they start all over again, so 2 pigeons chicks every 6-8 weeks, that's about 15 pigeons a year! (and those babies get fertile when they're 3 months old...). You def need to birth control pigeons if you don't want to be flooded with them :P
@@spacebug30 That's why people buy fake eggs to replace the real ones with. That way the pigeons can feel like they're starting families, but you won't ever have to deal with any actual babies.
Your bird got really good wing set-up. Usually after 2 moult,the bird get better and better wing feather and able to fly very efficiently. Nice to see your bird flying😊🕊️
Wow, just stumbled across this video and I'm glad I did. Very cool. She is beautiful! Pigeons are amazing creatures. It's ashame people see them as vermin! Amazing video! Thanks for sharing your tips! 👍
I think it's good that she's a free-flight bird, the only problem I have with this video is that one of your dogs chases her when she begins to fly. I know the dog is excited, but this could potentially stress her out and cause her to fly in another direction and get hurt somehow.
I also had a pigeon at home for 34 days, from around 3 weeks. He had a bad leg; was limping, but I cured it with plant minerals and Diatomacous Earth. I also took mine out with my bike, at first in a basket on a cushion of hemp material, as he limped, but soon he sat on my shoulder or head. We always went to a huge park/old cemetary. Mine did not want to fly so much, he flew back to me every time or sat on a branch and looked unhappy. He was afraid I would abandon him. There were no pigeons in the park of his kind, so I had to leave him with cliff pigeons in the city one day when I tought he could fly well. He went to them at once. I left him crying, I so love my little baby. Now when I go see them and feed them seeds and water, he comes to me every time he is there. He sits on my head, in my knee, in my jacket and I talk and sing to him and cuddle him in his neck. He is still my baby but free now with other pigeons. It is a stressful life for them with children who scare them all the time and people who feed them white bread, lack of food all the time so they eat it. all thos wonderful birds need help to be able to forage and live a good life. The government don't care what happen to the pigeons. They listen top the lies spread in the media that they are dirty etc.
This is EXCELLENT!!! Though since Pigeons have their homing ability, would this technique work for Doves? Like Ground doves and the normal Ringneck dove? I've raised my Ground doves ever since they were an egg and now they are 5 months old, I've trained to them to come to me indoors but when I do this outside in an open area, they fly away and don't come back, I've only been managed to find them and bring them back home but they don't really listen to me? The doves im talking about are in my channel. Awesome videos as always, can't wait for more of your videos
Alibaba Telfer I think you can do this with only domesticated pigeons and doves. Wild pigeons leave you after a while. I tried also with wood pigeon but if she was strong enough she left me, this is the way of nature, they belong to the wild.
Pigeon Soul Well that definitely explains A lot now, No wonder that is happening. I understand now. Though I will start raising breeding Ruddy ground doves(already done it to 2, just need to 2 more). This info really helped a lot Thank you
Hi there, I've raised (or I am raising) a wood dove who fell out of the nest. It's hand tame, is learning to eat independent, I'm still feeding although I estime it must be about five to six weeks old now. It pick up seeds but drops them again.... Thanks for sharing this video, it gives me more insight to what is possible. And yes predators like falcons and cats of my neighbors are the main problems... Hope it will survive once I let it go... and come back. As this video is two years old, I hope pencake is still alive and kicking :) Have fun. One quick question, what are real treats for pigeons beside seeds ?
Wood pigeons eat worms too. They eat bud from tree and small green plants from ground as well. They need small peaces of gravel time to time for the digestion. Good luck with your pigeon :) P.S. : Yes Pencake is really well. She is 6 years old now and enjoy her life with me.
@@Boborjanbobo just wonderful ! I hope I can keep Olaf also for a lot of years. Today I trained ( only for the 3th time) and 5 times out of 7 he flew to me... not bad I thought :). Thanks for your reply, salad or greens he doesn't like so much, I'll try to find worms ...
at the beginning i coud not understand you akkustic, when did you take her out ? how old has the pigeon been ? Because you said, the bird just couldn`t fly.
Very interesting how many times a day, do you feed before fly as I starved mine all day Friday before their very first flight and they was out flying the area also slept on the roof of the house all night (in the rain) before returning the following evening
@@DaMam21 I feed them ones a day. Yes, you did good, one day no food before first fly and normally they have to respond for your call when they are hungry. Maybe something scary the that's why they didn't come the first night, maybe a cat or some other predator.
Maybe you're right. I have hand fed them only since and seeing a difference already, they were hand fed but not for every feed. My sons male and female. Friday is the second flight. Bath first then fly as this is the routine I have introduced. . I hope a much speedy return
Ur pigeonnis really very beautiful and clever. I just hope its not dangerouse for her to fly like this. That no dangerouse cars, no eagles, no other transport. Its a big job to train bird. Really well done.
I wanted to let you know I have been training my pigeon since birth. She’s 4 weeks old today and she flew to me today. I take her out to different areas like you instructed and taught her to come to me. Outside training has only been happening for one week but it’s going really well. She seems to listen more when the weather is bad because she likes the warmth. How to teach her to come right away? Does it come with time?
I really hope that this bird won’t get caught by a falcon or a hawk. Please be aware of your surroundings and watch out for predators. I wish you good luck! That bird is one of a kind 👍🏼
Szia! Kajával tanítottad, vagy elsősorban nem, ahogy a videón látszik? Nevelek kilenc napos kora óta egy kóburgit, minden etetésnél kézre léptettem, mondogattam egy hívószót mikor evett, szépen jön rá gyalog. Jó lenne ha tudnám kaja nélkül hagyni röpdében ha úgy van, de kimenni vele ugyanúgy később, hogy melóval összeférjen azért...
Szia! Ha teheted, és időd engedi, akkor csak kézből etesd és játsz vele, tedd le, hívd magadhoz, jutalmazd meg, tedd le újra és hívd magadhoz és jöhet a jutalom falat ismét. Úgy szoktam eltávolodni tőlünk, hogy teszek a földre pár apró magot és szépen odébb állok, amikor feleszi őket úgyis keresni fog, ekkor már távolabbról is behívhatod és ismételten megjutalmazod. Próbáld ne mindig csak kajával jutalmazni, szeretettel is lehet, cirogasd meg a kobakját, simogasd, beszélj hozzá, ha hozzád repül, amikor behívod. Néha ki szoktam menni velük sétálni kaja nélkül is, úgy még véletlenül sem tudom mindig azzal jutalmazni őket. Legtöbb esetben én is egyszer viszem ki őket naponta, hisz én is melózok, több időm nincs velük foglalkozni. Remélem érthető voltam :) üdv
@@Boborjanbobo Szuperül kifejtetted, köszönöm, megválaszoltál mindent! 2017-ben volt egy szarkám, ő gyönyörűen jött kézre, néha adtam neki falatot mikor behívtam, néha nem, néha adtam neki csak azért is, hogy elücsörgött a kezemen, és nem ment újra el. Idővel jött akkor is első szóra ha már nem is volt éhes. Sajnos Január végén nyakát törte a saját röpdéjében, aztán nem nagyon akartam varjúfélével próbálkozni megint, mert a romlandó kaja napi 3x-i etetése (begy hiányában) elég nehézkes volt, de hiányzott már a madár repítés. Viszont más azért a galamb, nem nagyon tudtam mire számítsak. Kicsit "lassabb", de sokkal stabilabb is, nem olyan sértődékeny vagy ijedős, és csak úgy egyébként is nagyon cuki ahogy keresi és élvezi az ember társaságát, eddig nagyon tetszik. :))
@@Soreiru Sajnálom a szarkádat :( Biztos vagyok benne, hogy jól fog menni a dolog a galamboddal, és sok élvezeted fog nyújtani a vele töltött idő. :)) üdv.
@@Boborjanbobo Szia! Gondoltam visszajelzek! Minden tök királyul megy, ami igazán tetszik az tényleg az, hogy függetlenül attól éhes-e vagy nem, bármikor ki tudok vele menni, és jön ugyanúgy. Tök jó szórakozás, de tényleg! :)) Még most kezd felbátorodni a repülésben, egyre szívesebben megy ide-oda ahelyett hogy csak rajtam "élne", de olyan szépen visszajár, imádom. Azt nem mondom hogy mindig jön első hívásra, (viszont előbb-utóbb eddig kivétel nélkül mindig) viszont már tudja mit jelent, és jön ha akar, volt már arra is példa, hogy élesen fordult egyet a levegőben abban a pillanatban hogy hívtam. :) Szinte biztos vagyok, hogy a videóid közrejátszottak abban hogy megtartottam a szülei alatt ezt az egy tojást, és tényleg szuper döntés volt, tök jól "működik" meló mellett is, ahogy szerettem volna. Köszi érte, meg a tanácsokért is. :)
@@Soreiru Ennek nagyon örülök :D Csak így tovább, idővel még jobb lesz. Sok szórakozást ;) ha bármiben tudok segíteni, ha megakadnál vagy bármi kérdésed van írj, segítek, ha tudok .
Is there a certain food that is delicious to them? My friend seems to pick out the red millet or milo and sorghum. I want to find something that it will love and will help it put on weight. He's recovering from injury.💗
@@Boborjanbobo Thank you! He was picking out some type of seed that looked like black vetch peas but smaller. Bought vetch peas- he flung them at me.😂He won't eat rapeseed or hempseeds either, so I am hoping to find something he is happy to eat. I will try peanuts, thanks for the advice! Also, any recommendations for type or brand of grit and/or vitamins.
