there's someone in my area giving away free pigeons!!!!
he put up an ad saying "FREE RACING PIGEONS Imported Belgium Dutch and Australian bloodlines excess stock"
i live 3 hours away and when i emailed, he said that once i've chosen what i want specifically, he'll bring 'em down, free of charge. he's such a nice guy. anyway, he said thet he's got 3 different age groups to chose from, stock birds, young birds and squeakers. and i was wondering if you guys could help me answer some questions
1. what are squeakers? do they eat a different kind food to the other age groups?
2. which age group sould i get? i have 3 pigeons right now, a nun, a king, and a donek, and they're about 2 years old, and they all live in the coop with my chickens, and they're all let out every orning (with the chickens) and locked up at night. based on that info, which age should i get? i'd also like young birds i can get to eat out mmy hand as i often get friends' kids who come by and like to feed my birds (less work for me
)
any and all help appreciated!
thanks,
james
