    I like pigeons, I think they're cool. I do enjoy parrot type birds just because I do enjoy the much more sophisticated intelligence. I enjoy interacting with them and almost having a conversation (lol) and there ability to dance to music with me ect. But if you're looking for more of a MEGA chill bird I could see a pigeon being a decent option.

Also I didn't know there's teflon is hairdryers wtf, why do humans keep putting toxic stuff in everything. I've dried my bird a couple of times with one and now I'll need to think of alternatives.

    do you think a pigeon, which is scared of humans, can learn from a hand raised pigeon, through watching me interacting with it, that I am no harm to them? I ask because I have two pigeons; one feral adult, which is scared every time I go to the cage (but finally eats out of my hand) and one young hand raised which is very fearless and likes me very much :)
