I was hoping he'd pull through but it appears whatever happened over feeding or otherwise was to much he stopped gasping only to regurgitate and choke and pass away before I could do anything
I'm sad and wish this haven't happened but parents are back on their eggs and now I know to that a baby can be successfully hand raised with caution. I'd not introduce again unless the parents already had babies the same age. I feel Wallace attempting to feed him post already being full may have caused him to asphyxiate on liquid he didn't want to swallow. Wallace of course was only doing what nature intended and simply missed the babies que to stop, it seems. And I could've prevented it by not introducing but of course I myself may have ended up doing the same to be honest. Either way Rip tiny pigeon. We are sorry you have passed due to error and hope you grow up to be a beautiful bird in pigeon heaven. This is the end of this thread I suppose. Wallace and Soup are sitting on their clutch once more and I'll check to see if we have life in a few days. Hopefully they'll see this set through if they're fertile. If babies hatch I'll post a new thread on Wallace and Soups parenting skills and baby growth for reference. Thank you guys for all the helpfull info and threads shared in attempts to get this baby going. It was a fail but the attempt was made and while the baby died it was not due to something like lack of proper nutrients or deficiency or such fears when raising by hand from such a young age. Just a unfortunate mistake which we and others can learn from if anyone else makes the attempt as well. Thank you all again for the info and help to make this babies attempt at life the best it could be and I hope others who are put in this position are more successful, (hopefully it was a one time thing & I wont be ever again) let's pray for the next 19 days that Soup and Wallace are successful in their own parenting endeavors.
