Hi there. There is a banded pigeon that showed up a week ago at my apartment. At first I thought it was a dove. It has been here since last Saturday. Do the owners typically let them out or do they want them back like a missing doh or cat? I'd just like to do the right thing if his/her family is...

I was clipping flowers and he wiggled under me

Okay I will do that. How old would you say, I've seen tons of baby ducks here and they are about this size around a week or 2 old. I just wonder why this person did it. They put him at the creek that runs along the pond (no one knows there's a creek unless you've been here or lived here) which...

I don't own the others. Its a pond right in front of my apartment. The others here are Muscovy's. There used to be 8 American buff geese but they hauled all of them but 1 off...that's a whole nother subject. This 1 acts like a dad to the Muscovy babies when they're around so I'm hoping he will...

About 3 hours ago I notice 1 baby duck chirping and then see a box. Any tips? Don't know what kind it is. There are ducks here but they don't pay any attention to it. He/she folllows me EVERYWHERE. [/IMG][/IMG]

He's not been found. This was an old pic. I'm going to write a letter to management. I doubt they will accept my offer to put speed bumps in. The ones I've looked at are the really annoying ones that are like a foot wide and the hard rubber type that are bolted down im assuming. We saw a car...

Oops posted two of same.

He seems fine. Eating like normal. I would rescue him in a heartbeat...along with a few or all of them! The pond is in my apartment complex. My building is the only one that is in front of it, it's at the entrance. I've done some research on pricing and I'm going to talk to the office and see if...

What would happen if I did get another one? What would the others do?

Oh really? I thought all ducks could fly lol. Oops. he was acting what seemed normal to me but he followed me around. I sat out with them till 3am I felt so bad.

I was just scared he will be lonely. If one took a drink of water the other did. If one shook off the other did. If one flapped its wings the other did. Etc. The were follow the leader.

Yes sorry I knew id be all over the place. There's 2 gone. What's here at our pond are about 10-15 Muscovy ducks, there were 2 Pekin, and there's also 8 American buff geese. The Pekins wings were clipped before coming here. The Muscovy is one who got hit by a car. We haven't found the Pekin yet.

They were here when we moved in. Supposedly someone dropped them off here.

I am devastated so I don't know how much sense I will make but I need some help and advice. There were 2 Pekin ducks in our neighborhood pond that I have absolutely grown to love since we moved in a year and a half ago. Their names are Mo and Curley. They are the funniest and some of the feisty...

I know Marley (almost a year old) wouldn't tolerate it if they were alone, to her it would be a real live stuffed animal to destroy! She was (and still is) super jealous everytime we pay any attention to the chick so we introduced them. I don't want anyone to feel left out. Marley wants to give...
