Oh my gosh you don’t know how much you helped me. I tried so many methods to feed Hubert I he just wouldn’t eat. Then I saw your video and it changed my life. Hubert started eating instantly with the first method. I was so happy that he finally started eating and I just can’t thank you enough. Tyyy :)

[@jeffengle2676]

I'm so glad that you posted this video. It has helped me a great deal as I have 2 orphaned Racing Homers and had to start raising them by hand and they are healthy and growing and thriving. I just wish there were a way to put something in the nest to comfort them better.

[@pigeonlover9301]

you saved a life by helping me while others told complicated methods this was easy thank you so much

[@LastDaysIntercessors]

Thank you so much for making this video. I was not aware that the bag method even existed. This video is such a gem.🙏

I’m here too because of an abandoned baby pigeon. She’s doing greats and this helps. Thank you.

They’re so cute. Thanks for feeding them

[@ignaciomaldonado4251]

My God, they're talkative and so cute, Pigeons are such lovely animals, since my childhood I loved them but without knowing a pursued them. Actually when walking on every street, I enjoy watching them always. Thank You so much for taking care of these babies. Mellifex Farm, its lovely.

[@mellissah8670]

Also, if someone is inexperienced the use of a smaller syringe can help to not risk overfilling. Good video!

[@rosaliecarpio7768]

Thanks for the help. I just rescued 2 baby pigeons and this is most helpful. 👍

[@imhoturnot09]

Thank you!!! I’ve been feeding some week old babies by hand with a mushy mix of seed and chick feed and it’s so messy! This looks great, will do this next time 😅

[@thethreesailors8194]

Thanks l’onda for this video. i wasn’t sure my 9 days old rescue pigeons could eat a pigeon seed mix yet and in which size, gave it to them today after seeing your video and they loved it, didn’t get as much air in their crops as they would with semi-liquid formula and they felt full much faster. Bless your heart!

[@tullo5564]

This is the video I was looking for,thank you so much! I was having a hard time feeding the almost orphan baby pigeons,thanks to their parents

TY very much for this. 2 baby pigeons appeared on my patio few days ago & though I bought them feed they didn't appear to be eating. Now I know how to teach them to eat

[@yusuf5319]

Thanks for the great video...you have save many baby pegions lives from this video...tnxs a million

[@KeitsuHanei]

thanks for additional info. my vet (not extreme pro avian expertise) advice too little food and i suspected it wasn't enough so i thicken the oatmeal (3rd feeding since rescue). but i did learn to check the crop. but i believe it is old enough (7+days) to eat seeds so i'll be getting a bag at least.

[@wholovesu2]

Great video let me try the seed thing have 2 babies mother was scalping them.... worked beautiful and they took right to it

[@TheCountryRoadDiva]

BRILLIANT! This is saving so many lives!

[@SuperManning11]

Thank you so, so much. Since I was a kid I’ve always shied away from attempting to rescue baby birds because they always die and it hurts my soul. Four days ago my dog found a little mourning dove chick on my patio. Not sure how many days old he is, but he barely has little pin feathers and fits completely in the palm of my hand, so I’m guessing no more than a week old, if that. I searched and searched for the nest but was unsuccessful. Then several hours later another little guy just appeared in the exact same spot, and again I searched unsuccessfully for the nest. We have Cooper’s hawks here and doves seem to be at the top of their list of birds on their menu, so it’s possible something happened to their mama. Regardless, I had two babies on my hand that needed attention, so I decided to give it a go on feeding them, thinking that it would entail giving them a bowl of water and throwing some seeds in with them and hoping for the best. When I first watched this video I was fascinated but thought I could never do this. But now with two very hungry chicks I simply had no choice. I scrabbled to get the right food and utensils and then with great care and no small amount of trepidation, I just went for it. The first two feedings were a bit clumsy for the birds and for me, but the job got done. I am SO happy to report that both birds are doing well and I am still shocked at the fact that I am able to syringe feed them with no problem. The first time was indeed very scary-I just didn’t want to hurt these tiny creatures in any way. But now all three of us are used to the routine. I have so much more confidence in myself and the little ones don’t struggle at all when I pick them up because they know a warm meal is on the way! Now I need to figure out when to switch to the bag of grains. I’m hoping they will show me when it’s the right time. They are growing so rapidly so my guess is that it will be soon. This means so much to me, and I cannot thank you enough for having posted this video as a reference for me to know what to do. I am determined to get these guys to fledge, with the hope they will stick around and make nests of their own one day, bringing generations of joy to my home and garden. I’m writing this long comment with the hope that others who may be reticent to even try such a rescue will be motivated to give it a go. The reward for success is certainly worth it!

[@Wihake]

Thank you for this video..I'm helping a friend who just found a baby pigeon and this will definitely be very useful.

[@lennymarsidi2605]

I use the baby chick food from walmart, and grind put a lot of eater to mix it so its like porridge and feed them withy finger till they can eat them self than I give them small bird seed, move to a cage.I plan to let them fly free nut, I am waiting till the weather is warmer at night, so they are not freezing out side and starfing because they used to have food all this time.

[@lennymarsidi2605]

I mean water a lot to the baby chick food.

Hello, i have resently found a wounded pigeon chick and this video helped me be able to feed him but could you please tell me how im i supose to give them water? (he seam to be a bit older than the first ones you feed in your video)

[@MellifexFarm]

I would offer him a bowl of seed and a bowl of water, if he is older than the ones in this video he should be able to at least try to start self feeding/drinking. Giving water orally (aside from the water in the handfeeding mix) can be dangerous so its best to let them figure out drinking themselves.

[@dragonlegendyt6466]

Thanks for the bag feeding because I don't know how to open my baby Pigeon mouth thanks ❤️❤️👍👍

[@DIChannelHOBBIES]

Very nice...🙏

[@Scriptures_K]

I rescued a pigeon that seems to be too young to fly upwards (can flap about and glide forward but that's about it). I don't know how old it is, but it refuses to eat. It didn't have much of an issue with drinking. I hope tomorrow it will be rested enough to begin eating.

I have 2 baby pegeon tjat only 2 days old, abandon almost death and I raise them to be my pet. I just feef them with my finger with the baby chicken food from Walmart, I mix with water and feed them with my finger 2x aday, they grow so rapidly and I pur a lamp to keep th warm in the room and put old towel and put paper towel on top so I van change every day with the clean one, now they are adult pegeon ang star mating to each other, but it still cold winter time, and I just let them fly around the house about two to three hours every evening time to night time, and they go to bed in their cage, the also like to take a warm bath in a big bowl that I put on my counter top so the can enjoy soak them self in that bowl, its fun to see them every day, we are in California high desert area.
