Hi and welcome to BYC!! What kind of pen do you have them in?

 

[Akama]

Its just a small coup outside the house so they had their first pair of squabs and now the female doesent want anything to do with the male she keeps running away from him

I think this has been moved appropriately to Pigeons and Doves, but I wanted to take the opportunity to welcome you to the site!!!

What is the rush for eggs?

Your previous thread stated that the squab is only 13 days old. If this is so, they will not breed for another week most likely. They male is 'driving' her trying to get her to the nest to lay again. You need to give them a second best box to breed in.

I would highly recommend to wait and try to keep them from laying and not to rush them. Breeding takes a big toll on them, and they need time to get their energy back. the sauna would also benefit from another week of being brooded. How cold it is where you are?

Have you fixed the predator problem?

What are you feeding?


I hope this helps

Where I stay it gets really cold at night and early in the morning but during the day it gets really hot
I fixed the predator problem
I feed them with corn and wheat and at times kales but they aren't interested in the kales

A corn and wheat mixture isn't the best diet for pigeons. If possible, mix in some other grains to your current mix such as milo, millet, and safflower. If these aren't availible, mix in some wild bird seed. is there a reason you are wanting more? Or are you just anxiois?

and where are my manners? Welcome to BYC!
