I have one pair of week old pigeons. Today another pair of parents with eggs began pecking one of them enough to draw blood. I have not had anything like this happen before and I'm not sure what to do. Any help or advice would be welcome.

For some reason I doubt it is a pigeon problem. I am thinking a predator mostly likely rats from what you described.I lost 15 squabs. last one was yesterday 30 days old one more week he would have left the nest.
Now you should give the babies back to the parents. How old are they?Hey,faith I recently saw two pigeons fighting with baby pigeons,so I thought to clear the nest and replace the nest to another site but i think I had mistakenly took the baby pigeons away from there parents as they were trying to feed them which I thought was fighting. What should I do now
some parents abandon or stop feeding scalped babies. I have had some scalp their own when I cleaned the nest box before weaning. Unfortunately its apart of the hobby, some breeds are more territorial than others. GOOD POST TOTALLY AGREE !!!
