Last year I bought a bigass bird cage and modified it into a nice loft, and obtained two pretty pigeons from Strombergs which got along well and decided to start a little pigeon family. Fantastic. So they had two little pigeon children and raised them up all nice and dedicated, as you do. I left home for a while while the babies were growing up, and when I came home they were all about three months old. Upon my return, I noticed the dad, Gen, beating up on one of his kids, Hector. I wrongly diagnosed this as Gen being a bad father. I gave him an appropriately stern scolding that went right over his head, because he is a bird. However it turns out he is still smarter than me, and he was right about Hector, who now, a couple of weeks later, will not leave his mother alone. Gen is doing his level best to defend his poor wife from her delinquent son, who is apparently dead set on commiting incest. Outside of Hector constantly harassing Irene, there is what I assume is a normal amount of avian drama in the loft. Gen seems to be a good husband most of the time aside from the fact that he keeps mating with anyone and everyone in the loft, but he's not an asshole about it and Irene doesn't really seem to care so that's ok I guess? I just wish Hector would stop harassing his mother. She can't even leave the loft without being chased around the entire garden. He's also an asshole to her and everyone else except his little sister Eugenia, who he apparently adores and who follows him everywhere. He's unbearably cocky. He goes around puffing out his little adolescent chest and making dumb little cooing noises like he owns the place. Gen doesn't chase him around anymore, but that's probably just because he's gotten too big to be kept in his place. Granted this was mostly just a rant but does anyone know how I can make him Stop? He needs to go to pigeon jail. He needs to be put under a restraining order. He needs Serious Disciplinary Action. His mother just wants to eat garden dirt and sit on her third set of fake plastic eggs. She didn't ask for this.
