Thanks so much! Great advise that make lots of sense.

I use an air purifier - that seems to help a lot with dove dust.

Another awesome video with lots of excellent info, presented in a way that doesn't overwhelm. 😊

Very informative for the indoor pigeons. I have 4 homing pigeons in a very large aviary with a house inside. I keep it very clean. Most outdoor pigeon keepers videos i have seen they have tons of birds and to me it looks so filthy. Too many birds in a small space in my opionion. Thank you for the video.

Great to hear from someone like you. I have doves indoors, but when I had homers in a coop, they were still a loved part of my family. I see a lot of videos of people with homing pigeons, who say their birds are the only thing they care about, yet they are kept in pretty filthy conditions. It can seem tough to keep up with these birds poop, but if we are dedicated, it's just not a hardship. I just could never view them as livestock.

You have a great presenting voice reminds me of someone you might listen to at a museum or something of the like.

I know there is chiken diaper for indoor chiken. Is a pigeon diaper a good Idea for indoor pigeon?

[@thecrazypigeonlady8731]

Many folks who keep pet pigeons do use pigeon diapers successfully. One of the most popular brands is Bevs Bird Boutique but there are others :-)

@@thecrazypigeonlady8731 what ?? using diapers? no no no that's not solution, it's against animal right, they must have a partner, so if the diaper is placed he cannot marry and have child so its against animal right to make family they maybe look happy but not happy inside if you take their right

[@thecrazypigeonlady8731]

@@10jtsubscribers0video8 if used correctly and not during mating and nesting then bird diapers can be used successfully without causing distress. I personally dont use them myself on my own birds, I prefer to just manage the poop using old towels under their favourite perches
