He got a bath!I may or may not have rescued a skinny, incredibly dirty pigeon off the street today...
His/her name is Pickles.View attachment 2713639Sorry for the horrible picture, it’s dark out and I didn’t want to stress him/her.
Clean boi
For now I have, anyway. He pecks at me just like Neet Neet! XD
I saw him perched, all hunched up. I know that’s a bad sign in chickens, so I approached him. I noticed how dirty he was and how he didn’t seem to notice me approach, so I tried to catch him. It worked. He was so skinny and filthy I couldn’t just release him after that.
Well, I only did it because I’m able to.
There’s things like disease, for example, that you have to consider. I don’t have many birds, so it’s easy to separate him from them while keeping him mostly outside. Though I still haven’t touched Neet or brought him inside since I got the new pigeon just to be safe.
Well that’s good. I was worried about disease.Well, I only did it because I’m able to.
Yes. Though I’ll tell you a secret the government doesn’t want you to know (joking
)...
Yeah, I think my mom thinks street pigeons are full of diseases. Maybe they are, but only other birds will get them. XDYes. Though I’ll tell you a secret the government doesn’t want you to know (joking
Pigeons are a lot like chickens with disease- there’s actually not many pigeon diseases that people can get sick from. Unless you stick the pigeon in your mouth, I guess.
