He is beautiful! How do you keep him from flying over the fence, or is it netted on the top and I am just not seeing it?

Prayers to you both, Zaz. May the operation go smoothly and may he make a speedy and complete recovery!

Adorable!

Lol!

Piper is so beautiful! Are those pheasant feathers in his nest? Pigeons are so fragile yet so amazingly tough. One of my blue bar Racing Homers is still healing up from a nasty beating by a Cooper's hawk, darned hawk had him pinned down right in front of the loft and was pecking holes in...

Thank you so much for taking them under your wing and giving them a chance for survival! So sorry you lost one of the precious pigeon babies But very glad the other baby is doing well and has found his/her way into the arms of someone who is so caring! Name... maybe Rakkifazu? (means...

Too cute! Brings back memories of baby geese hatched years ago - I would follow the mother geese to watch the recently hatched goslings, and when it was nap time some of the more friendly and curious goslings would come over to me to snuggle in my clothes for their nap.

If you have lots of hawks in your local area, it is extremely difficult to get rid of them. Yes, crows (specifically ravens in my area, they are larger, smarter and more territorial) are a good natural resident to have hanging around, but get too many of them or a really smart member of their...

I am so sorry to hear about your troubles with the birds of prey and loss of so many doves and pigeons. You might want to use smaller wire so the hawks cannot reach through to get to the pigeons! I use 1/2 " by 1" wire mesh for most of the birds and it has so far kept everything out besides...

I agree with the others, your pigeons (assuming they are all well-feathered and in good health) should be fine without additional heating based on your description of where they are being housed. Just feed them well and include corn in their feed (whole corn, or if your birds are a bit more...

Yes, only once. Very... strange for ice cream but not as bad as it sounds!

In Sushi? Yum. For Peafowl treats? They say Yum. In anything else... Yuck. Lobster ice cream?

I have not seen my chickens eat the hay, but providing them with alfalfa to eat the little dried green leaves out of actually seems to cut the overall cost of feed by just a little bit. By eating the alfalfa their regular grain and pellet feed intake seems to have decreased by about 10% - when...

Ah, got it. I was thinking really big bales for that price - the local feed store here only sells the big heavy 3 twine bales.

What a beautiful assortment of peas! Also very nice rustic-looking pen and pea house/shed (I'm assuming that's what it is)! It is neat how their colors go so well with their house and pen setting, it creates such an interesting and serene atmosphere in the photos like they are in a whole...

Those are gorgeous!

Pea Daddy and Zaz: Gorgeous pics! Blue Creek Farm: Beautiful! I especially love those greens Took a few pictures a couple of days ago before the storm rolled in, it is windy and pouring cats and dogs outside right now. One year old showing off to his sister. "Do I look good for...

I buy horse quality timothy/rye/fescue mix hay and alfalfa from the local feed store for my geese. The timothy mix hay is entertaining for the geese, but what they really love are the large green alfalfa stalks in the alfalfa bales. They will pull out and happily munch the stalks, and the...

She is Moo's daughter and is now three years old, but I am still having trouble finding just the right name for her yet. Some birds I can easily name within the first couple days of meeting and getting to know them, but with others it is a bit more difficult for me for some reason. I have been...
