From Egypt thank you for your information I have learned something new

If you're still coming back to this video's comments, I have a question! About the part about helping digestion, shouldn't pigeons need grit even if they are provided with minerals and vitamins supplements then? Since liquid and mineral powder can replace "hard rocks" during the mechanical process of digestion? (Asking since I'm working in wild shelters that don't all use grit for pigeons)

This is a Very Informative Video, However I have a question how much do I feed a single Racing Pigeon each day?

[@acooper6956]

Great explanation of the situational need for grit!😊

[@perfectweather]

Great video, thanks 👍

Still not entirely sure about it, but I've been considering getting a pigeon. If I were to get a single hen, what should I do about the egg laying? Is there anything in particular I should do? Or should I just let her handle everything?

[@perfectweather]

Pigeons are wonderful. Definitely get one if you can

[@johntheslider5802]

@@perfectweather I am definitely considering it. I've wanted a bird for a while, but most seem to be really difficult to take care of. Not saying pigeons are easy to take care of, but they seem to be more of what I would want in a bird.

Ive just had a new roof installed and am left with two baby pigeons. Ive been feeding them peas and sweetcorn., today ive placed a flat tray and placed sunfliwer seeds and water in the rim. They look ok and are making chirping noises. Im not sure of the next steps to make as their mother is outside on roof. Ive left my bathroom window wide open and the attic hatch is ooen, the pigeons are sat up there nesting.

Could you do a video on bringing a pigeon out side safely

[@louisea966]

another great vid, thank you. quick question, what vit D + calcium supplement do you use? also your videos are a little quiet on the audio side - i just notice i always need to crank the volume to hear you. (but always worth listening to you, so that's ok)

[@thecrazypigeonlady8731]

Hi, I charged my microphone and turned it up to max but I might need better equipment, sorry. For calcium plus vit d supplement i use Agrivite Feather, Shell and Bone but Zolcal D is also another popular brand :-)

Nice vedio

There is so much great pigeon information on this channel

Hello. We adopted a single pigeon about 2 1/2yrs ago. We were told this bird was a male. We did not want a female because of the egg laying. Well to our surprise, our pigeon layed her first egg in January! Ugh! The change in behavior when she has eggs is like having a completely different bird. We still love her but it’s frustrating. My question is, is it ok to take the eggs away? I personally don’t want too because I’m afraid it will make her produce more eggs too fast and I don’t want to upset her. Thank you!

[@thecrazypigeonlady8731]

Ideally, replace the eggs with fake pigeon eggs as if you take the eggs it will stimulate her to lay again too soon. Best to let her sit fake eggs as long as she wants :-)

Archangels (Gimpels) tend to be a very nervous, flighty and wild breed. They are considered a breed of Field or German Toy Pigeon, which is to say that they belong to a group of breeds that are not very far removed from their wild ancestors. They are probably not the best choice for a house pet. I would look into Indian Fantails, Fantails, Mookees, Lahores, the various Pouters or any of the larger breeds like Modenas, Kings, Runts, etc. that tend to not be exceptional fliers and almost prefer to be on the floor or to be content on a perch in a cage. If you look hard enough, you might find a breeder who has transferred the Gimpel coloration into some of these breeds, as it has certainly been done through selective breeding.
