    Female pigeon attacking male after egg hatches

    No dad didnt feed him, mom was too protective to let him come around but then at around 3 weeks mom got sick and had to be taken to the vet, the vet said that raising him on her own was very stressful on her body, which makes sense, so I had to take over for the next few weeks while she was...

    Gas in 3 week old Pigeon crop

    He got crop milk until about a week ago, I feed him kaytee formula and I leave seeds out for him, I havent left after out because when I gave him some water in a bowl he thought it would be a good idea to dunk his entire body in it, so I'm still watching how he is with water in a bowl.

    Gas in 3 week old Pigeon crop

    Thanks, the only thing is he is not acting different at all, if anything he is growing more physically and emotionally, he is running around the cage and jumping out of the nest box and flapping his wings and he even picked at a bit of seeds, he is acting like a normal healthy baby.

    I have a 3 week old baby pigeon who suddenly has gas in his crop, I gently massaged the crop and got the gas out but it keeps filling back up, he has never hurt himself or had any accident to cause any kind of damage to himself, this just happened out of the blue, he is an aggressive eater and...

    Female pigeon attacking male after egg hatches

    Update! The baby who I have named Theo, has gotten huge and looks like he is going to be white on his back and wings, those are the only feathers that are starting to come out, he is very active and noisy and I have kept him separated from his dad Hershey, Hershey still can see and interact with...

    I had heard that if a babu's cloaca was "frowning" or "smiling" that can tell the gender, I was checking the baby out and it looks like it goes upward.

    So once I had seen that Hershey might be hurting the baby, I put a cage divider between them so they can both fly around and have space and when taffy leaves the nest she can stick her head through the bars and touch Hershey, but he cant go near or touch the baby.

    Female pigeon attacking male after egg hatches

    So I thi k I just figured out why she isnt letting him near the baby, I picked the baby up to check it when she flew out of the nest and it has a nice cut on its butt, maybe he is going after him when she leaves the nest, it doesnt look deep looks like if you were too scrape your skin, is there...
