Thank you! Hes a wee bugger, dont know how im going to cope with him pooing everywhere :hmm hope you are feeling better :)
Yeah, thats always a big issue with house birds ... :sick

I knew those were available for chickens, ducks and geese but had no idea they were available for other birds. Pretty cool!:love

They also have wee tiny harnesses and leads so your bird won't fly away out doors! :lol:
 
Yeah i have read about pigeon pants but worried he would hate them! Think its only option though! Usually we can tell when hes going to poo and put him in his poo box lol but sometimes hes too quick ha! The harness and lead sounds good though as i am really worried about losing him if he flies outside!
I doubt you would lose him outside. Expect him to return to you. He probably has a strong 'homing' instinct.:D
 
Hi @Fields Mountain Farm :) sorry not been on for a while! He is doing so well! Pretty sure he is a boy, he is always puffing up and cooing at us lol! He also like to peck, hes a wee nipper(got us in the eye a couple of times)! @biophiliac you were right about him sitting on your head ha!! I cant do anything without him being on me lol!
Also he is now going outside! First time he went out he never came back till next day, we were so worried and thought he got lost! But now he goes out for about 30 mins and then comes back :) and although he is all grown up he still loves his snuggles! I am so glad i thought he would grow out of it but he still cuddles right up next to my face its the cutest thing :love only slight problem is that his beak is slightly overgrown on top and i think it is hindering his eating so i will need to sort that out :/
Thank you for asking about my wee man!! :D:love
 
Can anyone guide me on what to do to help him get out alive ?
Raising a day old squab almost always ends badly even if he survives hatching. Sounds like you have no choice but to try and free him. Be careful as his tissue may fuse to the egg shell membrane and if you horse it off him he may bleed to death. Once he does hatch you may try feeding him warm egg yolk for the first while. Then I would advise getting Kaytee food for parrots.

Good luck you are going to need it.

It is something I have done but I would never attempt even though I have more experience with pigeons than most.
