How to feed Baby Pigeon "Penny" Part 1

This video was to add some INFO out there specifically about feeding baby pigeons. Penny the pigeon is...I think about 2 weeks old. I found her on Sept. 25th, 09. Had her for 5 days now and I think she is doing AWESOME. Very happy bird. Its been interesting to figure out how to take care of her. She is a fun little project that will make a great family pet. Part 1 shows how to make a FEEDER for pigeons and a summery of how I made the food and feeding intervals.

Seriously one of the BEST explanations and demonstrations of proper "sqeaker"/ baby pigeon feedings I've ever seen! Good job man! You explain the crop, etc, etc nicely. You should do one on tube/force feeding for EMERGENCIES/sick/injured adults who are too weak or sick to eat :) Again, nice video!

Exellent job. Secret to having them open their beak is to stick the beak between your middle finger and index finger with your non dominant hand so you can see your palm and beak only. with dominant hand take the syringe and tap the bottom of squabs beak ( Secret to feeding a pigeon). The squab will then open its mouth and then squirt some food into the mouth. Natural behavior. Simulate parents open mouth, parents tongues stimulate the squab under their beak to open and feed. Regurgitate.
