Raising baby pigeons!

in #animals7 years ago

So, my wife's boss hired someome to clean her attic of pigeons, and before they left they gave her two baby pigeons that were left alone.
One is already shoing a nice feather coat, the other is tiny, literally a hatchling , we fear that one might not survive

This is their second day with us.

Baby pigeons are hard to raise, i have done so a few times during my childhood.
They are used to having their parents puke half-digested food right into their throats, and its very hard to duplicate, so you have to very gently open their beak, and place tiny portions of wet food into it for them to swallow.

I will upload a guide with a video tommorow.

Hope you like them :)
