Well, got Chad the pigeon in to his new enclosure. Hopefully he's smart enough to figure out the water system, or at least watch Lizbeth enough to see how she does it. So far he's just sitting there trying to figure out what to do with all of the space. He went from 1.2 sq. ft. to 8 sq. ft. in the course of 20 minutes, with a little fly time in that 20 minutes. I'll get some pics later. DH isn't all that thrilled, he kinda forgot Chad existed over the last 3 weeks.
that Chad doesn't have anything harmful to the parakeets or chickens. He hasn't shown any signs or symptoms of illness or parasites, plus he got the borax bath for creepy crawlies that he may have had. I did have him drink some of the water from that bath, so he should be good on the inside as well. I made sure over the last week that I didn't scrub too much in between bird handling and petting, that way they get slight exposure and maybe get some antibodies built up. I hope everything goes ok now that they are in the same part of the house. My biggest fear is that one will get the other sick and we'll lose one or more of them. That would break my heart.
Chad is a lucky little guy, and it sounds like you are taking every reasonable precaution. 
You been BUSY Nunny.
Frosted with hard water would be better then nothing.
