I got a call from a friend of mine who works at an Animal Control facility, she asked if I would take a Pigeon that came in cause it's going to be put down cause it's injured and will never fly again. I raise chickens, I know nothing about pigeons but I said yes it will take it. It's been a few weeks and I've grown attached to the bird and I planned on once she's healed to put her in a coop with some Bantum chickens but the more I think about it I dont think that would be a good thing to do. I'm afraid she will get picked on. They are a type of bird that needs a mate,right? Plus,can anyone tell what kind she is ( that's if I attached the pic right)?
Thanks for any input!!!
