I love pigeon
Got my first bird few days ago so i watched a lot of video recently, this one is the first to give me the real answers to my questions, thanks ! your birds are beautifuls
@@Baal8895 Glad my video was useful!
Thank you for the vid! Its very helpful, ive had my pigeon (socks) for a month and i have 1 day a week i can't really spend time with him, and because of this he started to hate me, giving him treats and trying to get him to trust me like this might actually work :)))
Thanks for watching, and good luck taming your bird!
@@BubblyPetz1 i found a baby pigeon now shes 7 weeks old but it keeps on pecking and Scratching its feathers. I tried some stuff on Amazon To kill any bugs or lice , but it still keeps on pecking on its feathers It's losing some of its Hair. on its neck and head I already gave it 5 baths What can I do? i feel bad i don't wanna trow her out
@@sniffiejoe9370 Have you inspected her feathers to see if she has lice? If you don’t see any, it could be mites which are difficult to see and can take awhile to fully treat. If you see her feet look like the scales are raised up, then it could be scaly face/leg mites. There are some medications for that you can apply to her skin, but it won’t be cured after just one time. You’ll just have to be consistent with treatment, and eventually, her feathers should grow back.
@@BubblyPetz1 thank you so-so much what kind medications
@@sniffiejoe9370 I use Vetafarm Scatt liquid for treating the scaly leg/face mites, Ivermectin for general parasites, and ManaPro carefree enzymes poultry protector for lice. I’d probably start with the ManaPro spray and use that for your bird for a couple weeks and see if there is any improvement.
Have not seen your video in awhile!
Good job on new video❤✌️
Thanks for watching!
I have 2 wood pigeons nesting in my apartment building and I am wondering if I can make them like me haha
Haha, it’ll probably take lots of seeds.
@@BubblyPetz1 well the male bird doesn’t like me lol the female (at least the ones I’ve decided are male and female as I have no idea lol) is pretty chill so she might be easier.
Just left the male some seeds on my window ledge as he likes to sit there while she is nesting and he flew to the open window then puffed his chest out and started shouting at me haha!
@@rubyredphoto Pfft, haha, he probably thinks you’re going to steal his lady’s heart with all those seeds. The males typically coo and act more “aggressive” so your guess was probably right regarding their genders.
I got a pigeon four days ago! I got really lucky with him since he already enjoys being outside with me. He willingly flew to my head in day two and three lmao. He is also comfortable with my hand and fingers! Not 100% sure if he was hand raised ( I think it’s illegal where I live to hand raise a bird if not really needed ). He isn’t a racer pigeon though, I think the previous owner kept pigeons as hobbies and maybe fed them by hand time to time!
Always do background and history checks on the pigeon you’re getting. ( rescues and racing pigeon adopting is best if you wanna help pigeons! But it might take more time to bond with them imo ).
Wow, you are lucky with that! I agree with investigating the backgrounds of your birds since it can help to pick out one without any health issues, a good temperament, if they were hand raised, etc. It can be helpful to know how they were raised so that you can be more accommodating when taking care of and working with them. Unfortunately, it might not always be possible to find out this information like with my birds that I got from Stromberg’s Chickens. I can only suspect that they were raised in an aviary/coop and didn’t have much human interaction from their behavior around me.
@@BubblyPetz1 I really did :)
I didn’t get much information either 😭 he did give out hints that he sometimes hand fed them and they would hang out on him. But I don’t think they were 100% hand raised 🤷♀️. Who knows I didn’t ask because I didn’t want to seem weird but maybe I should’ve.. after all, being safe it’s better than being sorry lol.
I just know that my pigeon, Solivan wasn’t for racing and that I assume the breeder only keeps pigeons as a hobby somewhere inside a coop!
But I do hope there will be a chance I can adopt a rescue ☹️. There’s so many pigeons who need help.. though sadly it’s hard in my counties to actually find any rescues since we really can’t just take an animal, like a healthy stray dog or cat off the street unless they’re injured or heavily disabled to the point they cannot survive in the wild. Even if it’s a baby bird that was not wanted by their bird parents and it was being left on the ground to die. We sometimes get the chance to raise them ourselves. But I think you need to have a decent experience, since it will most likely be let out into the wild soon once they’re capable of doing so. Which is understandable for wild animals honestly. But most people here won’t get out of their way to help a wild animal here. And rescues are not anywhere near where I live ☹️.
@@hnnamb Aw, that sucks that people aren’t so kind towards animals where you live. It’s great that you want to take in a rescue though. Maybe you can look online to see if there are any pigeon rescues that would be willing to ship within your country.
Thanks and I love your vid and also your pretty!! ❤❤
Thank you for watching!!!
Lovely pigeons and you beautiful ❤
Thanks for watching!!!
My male pigeon likes to bite alot. I have 5 right now, mom, dad and 3 babies. He could be being protective cause he used to not bite as much as he does now. They also like to land on my head and shoulders 😅 But they do still act frightened at times and it takes awhile to catch them.
Wow 3 babies?? All from same litter?
My one pigeon is the same way. He is so aggressive if I stick my hands in his cage to clean, but often grunts at me and flies away if he is outside the cage.
@@ChristinaG83 Yep!! :) One was born in September and 2 born in November!
@@BubblyPetz1 Glad I'm not the only one 😅 Thanks for taking the time to reply ❤
Some of the other pigeons channels mention this is actually affection. He’s trying to preen your hand.
I raised two abandoned white fantails, they had no problem with me until i tried to make them wear diapers. From that point they hated my hands and havent been able to regain their trust.
This is a tough one. I would try to feed them lots of treats when you put the diapers on them. Hand feed them their meals too. I made my one pigeon wear pants once, and he didn’t want to trust me anymore. I ended up not putting them on him anymore and regained his trust through treats, food, and petting.
@@BubblyPetz1 i'll try to do that.
How long, on average, should i hold their food bowl until my pigeon eats out of it? Should i hold it until they approach? Or hold it for like 15 minutes and take the food away and try again a bit later?
@@adamlorton8923 Ideally, you should wait however long it takes for them to work up the courage to come to you. That’s why you want to make sure that they are hungry before doing this so that they don’t ignore you. It may take longer than 15 minutes for a skittish bird, so you’ll just have to be patient.
Can you make a vid on how to get ur pigeon to stop biting you bc my pigeon lay in fertilize egg and it broke into yolk and she sit on it and I. Try to take it out coz it stink but she bit me all time
This is natural behavior in pigeons when they are defending their nest. The biting could be avoided if the pigeon saw you as their mate, but that would usually mean keeping only one bird so that they bond to you and not another pigeon. You could probably use a towel to grab your pigeon off the nest to remove the broken egg if you want to avoid getting bit.
How long did it take for each pigeon to get acquainted being close to you?
Currently my pigeon is in the finger feeding phase, anything more than that he'll walk away. Usually he circles in front of the mirror during feeding time.
Still figuring out when i can pet him but in no rush.
Thanks for watching! I didn’t really keep track of how long it took, but I’d say for CloudFeather, it took him a few months to be comfortable around me and almost a year and a half for me to be able to pet him. For InkWing, it’s taken me much longer to earn his trust, since I don’t have much time to work with him on a daily basis. I think it took him almost a year to be okay around me and willingly hang around me, but even then, he still grunts at me and flies off if I approach him most times. Both birds started coming to me and sticking around after I consistently trained them and had treat feeding sessions.
2:40 pigeon dropped poop on ur head
I don’t think he did. He was just slipping and sliding off my head which made it look like he did.
Do you use pigeon pants?
No, I practically never use them. The birds don’t like them, and it’s too much of a hassle for me to force them to wear it and then, change it every so hours. I just think the whole process is stressful, and I’ve tried to train my one pigeon to be ok with me putting them on him, but he’s not like a parrot thats been harness trained and no matter what, won’t stand still for me to put them on him.
I use dog pads/training pads and line their cages with it. Works fairly well
@@BubblyPetz1, if you don't use pige pan6pts, how can your bird follow you and even sit on you for very long without making a mess?
@@cathemoody6123 I usually keep him in a room for most of the day and then let him out of that room during training or for filming since I have cats. Usually, he doesn’t sit on me for very long periods at a time, so he doesn’t poop on me. It’s better to wear something that you don’t want to get stained if your bird likes to sit on you or make sure that every 10-15 minutes you take your bird off you to poop before letting them back on you. As for the mess, I just have to clean everyday to keep up with it. It helps that he doesn’t have free range of the house, so most of the mess is confined to the room where I keep his cage.
@@BubblyPetz1Is it bad, to keep your pigeon in a cage, most of the day? Like will that make them depressed? What is the recommended amount of time, they should be outside of their cage? 🤔
Hi pls help I got a female pigeon 3 days ago and I am kinda scared of it pls help.. TIPS
Hi, what makes you scared of it? Females tend to be gentler than males and not attack you. My male pigeon likes to run up to me and start biting my hands when he sees them. It hurts because his beak is sharp which makes me hesitant to hand feed him sometimes, but there is nothing to be scared of if your bird isn’t biting or slapping you. They are pretty easy to handle and live with. If you want some care tips, you can check out my other pigeon videos. I have ones for cage setup, basic care, and training!
@@BubblyPetz1 hi I don't know why I'm scared of it . But thank you for the tips.
@@BubblyPetz1 hi I got a question so right 1 day ago I lost my male pigeon so we got a new one today. But the girl hasn't made a sound so today as we put the new male in the cage with the female the female is scared of him but a few seconds later the male starts chasing the female and forcing himself onto her but the female keeps running away from him. Is it normal???!
@@karabo6325 It is normal courting behavior. It’s called driving. Your female pigeon may have been bonded to the male you lost, so it is scared of the unfamiliar new one. It will just take some time for her to accept him, and they should eventually bond.
@@BubblyPetz1 OK thank you so much
