my baby of gone feral two differant parents, loves attention, and before i had to start keeping him caged for fear of neighbors continuing to get ticked about him, he used to have to be tossed out repeatedly and chased off to go get exercise, then would come back and demand to be let in to sit on my knee, shoulder, or in lap ect, and hated to be put up by the other pigeons, till he and one other were only pigeons left for a while, now he still tries to come out and visit at times when feed, but more compliant to stay in cage, rather than fly around and hop all over me ( i really need to move!). i had my doves raise him from an egg, but was tossing and homer training him once he was starting to come out of the nest, so guess he bonded to me then, and was like a little dog along with a rooster i had, they were the sentinels of the flock of pigeons and chickens, and would watch up on the roof and such and chase off hawks. the chicken was also an awesome pet, and id say much more odd, though they both brought me stuff like little presents (both males as am i by the way, and they had picks of other bird type buddies and ladies..).
