[AvrilLynn1]

Nice vids! I hope your pigeon is doing great! It would be nice to see some updates. You are very natural in front of the camera.

Terry, you rock. Thanks for an acutal USABLE video on feeding for those of us afraid of drowning our babies!

[RotorMedic7]

Hello,

For those of you watching this ALSO check out "Pavlovafowl" her comments are below this and she has a very SIMPLE way to feed her bird also. VERY NICE INFO!

[Lotus201877]

@RotorMedic7 You need to make a new vid about how her being grown :3

[Pavlovafowl]

My pigeons eat a lot of oyster shell, particularly when they are feeding young. If you are not near the sea or a restaurant that could give you the shells, mix some sesame seeds into her food To absorb this calcium birds need Vitamin D so Penny needs to get out and get some rays for at least 20 minutes per day. Also if you put her down on the ground she will automatically start pecking in the grass - she needs vegetation and little stones to get her digestion going. You are doing a great job!

Awww I can't wait till my baby pigeon hatches!!!! :D

[toadyoustube]

Good info fella, I was given a baby wood pigeon by my neighbour that had been abandoned for over a day, Now feeding much easier since watching your posting, Bird is doing very well thanks to you, regards from the UK.

Forget that Micky it's meant to say mix it

[littlejayjulia]

Just mix one tablespoon of bread crumbs and one table spoon of warm water Micky and that's pigeon food enough for one little baby

Baby pigeons that age are called "squeakers" since that's the noise they make (I have 25 Rollers and have hand feed at least 10 of them). This is great information as I began feeding them by forcing food into their mouths. This works ONLY if you find the right path to the crop. If not, death. This is a better way since this is how they naturally eat from their parents. I have used the Kaytee food and it works great; stinks but works.

[RotorMedic7]

@klbcn Thank you for the information. ;)



[RotorMedic7]

See part 1. Thanks. "KAYTEE Bird food."

Oh man thanks so much dude for these vids, Ive syringe fed all my other bird orphans and then I found a pigeon, would not open the beak at all. This works soooo much better!

[CasualSeks]

i had a baby hatch this morning. fed him in the afternoon using this method (somewhat) . It worked like a charm. thanks

[689321546]

i use a coffee grinder and grind up some pigeon food and mix with baby food and works really well i have hand rised 100's over the years .

[airsoftfreak558]

hey, rotormedic7 is lettuce or bread is good for baby pigeon because it is three years old and drink some water so what is better bread or lettuce but in small pieces?

[derekobycedar]

Thank you for showing how to make the bird feeder!! I was trying to use the more natural way to feed my baby pigeons, and saw your video. That's great!!!!!

Thanks alot

[corky781]

[corky781]

[MrPigeonflyer]

[TheRunescapegod100]

[Maxzarlasht]

Hey man good job, your doing something good here. How does penny look like now and did you keep her. Pigeons are very good about being loyal.
