P.S.
At the time when I posted this video, I didn't know that there is also a youtube channel called PigeonTrix where a person trains his pet pigeons, which proves the point that pigeons are smart and trainable pets :) I was particularly fascinated by this video:

my grandpa friended a pigeon when he was a kid. they bonded so closely that it would follow him almost everywhere. he never had it as a pet. it would just visit him 98% of the day. aside from being at school. it would follow his schoolbus even. it even brought its mate by to introduce it to him. he would just leave his bedroom window open, and itd be like "hello :3" theyre very affectionate creatures and very misunderstood, similar to corvids. i love all of them
it seriously makes me cry inside when kids OR EVEN ADULTS kick pigeons 😭
How did he friend it?
@@JabubMontoya food and beimg chill
Do u kno what breed of pigeon it was? Or have a picture of it? Just curious
@@J_SIMZ13 no clue
I love homing pidgeons the most! I get migraines and can't deal with sharp noises, yet I want a pet bird in my future. Your video helped me pick the right bird! I could enjoy the soft coos and wing flapping just fine without being overstimulated. They also seem to be less destructive then rats lol. I want a loyal friend who I can keep for 10+ years so this would be an investment im interested in. Thank you for the insite!
Oh, migraines are no fun :( I get them too sometimes... even though pigeons are quiet, they can be annoying at a time :D especially when they are trying to call you over or asking for you to pet them :D
I love Homing Pigeons and Classic Oriental Frills the most! :D I also like how you compared pigeon to a loyal friend. Because that's what they are :)
Yeah Pigeons are awesome when you have migraines. I got budgies, worst decision I made, well not quite, but urgh... But I also got Kakarikis, they are interesting too and don't make harsh noises most of the time. But then they're little ADHD toddlers on speed that ate too much candy so... Pigeons aren't my choice of birds because I love my toddlers, but I had one I took care of and found as a little chick, she was kinda savage slapping me. She loved doing that. But now she got a flock and only comes around to look after me and makes sure I'm fine. I miss her big time.
@@ProjectExteria 🤣🤣 you sure on gender there? Bcuz the wing slap is a dominance move, like BAP, I'm the boss! And it sounds like they still think of you as "theirs"
@@MrClarissacain yes. She does that only to me, not even her fellow piggies
Males are the noisy ones.
The amount of sass in this video is absolutely amazing
But mainly pigeons it seems like are one of the best pet birds you can have. Most birds are smart (sometimes too smart), needy, messy, poop a lot, and are expensive. Those are the basic things to accept when getting a pet bird in general. But of all those pet birds, a pigeon is quiet, physically cannot destroy things easily, and live a decent amount of time (not too long where they have to be given to grandchildren but not too short where it's too tragic).
I've always loved pigeons and I want one someday, and this vid made me consider it more. Thanks for the info!
So do they poop all over the place? That's all i'd be worried about.
@@zmonkey111 to my knowledge, yes. But it's trainable to not do so. Like dogs and cats. I think birds are around that category of intelligence
NOTHING CAN EVER PREPARE ME FOR THE DEATH OF MY BELOVED BIRDS ... NO MATTER HOW LONG OR SHORT THEIR LIVES ... ITS ALWAYS AN ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY WHEN I LOSE MY LITTLE FEATHERED CHILDREN ! 😭
The no friends did it for me
Very well said!
I've always appreciated pigeons. So many people refer to them as vermin, but I've always seen them as super cute. My partner and I bonded over how much personality the average pidge can have. Besides homing pigeons, I didn't realise people kept them as pets. Its one of my dreams to befriend a wild bird... Though I'd happily hatch one too.
Hey, Doogle Lawless! :D Oh same! I always loved pigeons since I was a kid, and I also thought they were wild birds.. but if you live in North America, all pigeons that you see in the streets are ferals - meaning that they were domestic birds at one point, but then either escapes\were let go and now survived in this climate... it's the same as if you would see a stray cats in the street -they used to be domestic, but something happened and now they are homeless.... kinda sad to know that actually..... any who, I also didn't know you can have pigeons as pets :D but turns out - it's not forbidden :D
"Get someone that you won't need to change for." 👏👏👏 that can be repeated!
I find pigeons adorable but they won't fit me, my cat fit my life style a lot better. But it's fun to see what it's like and she looks adorable when you cuddle her in the end 🥰
Awe, thank you for finding my bird adorable! :) I'm very happy to hear that you have a pet\companion that fits your life style and makes you happy :)
In the US, pigeons will go to some variety of an “exotic vet”, which is EXPENSIVE!! To find an exotic pet that isn’t prone to congenital diseases is AWESOME, even bunnies come with HUGE vet bills in their later years!
With rabbits you can expect to spend up to $700 US annually at your exotic vet to keep them well. Your regular dog and cat vet can’t care for them. Vets have to treat rabbits as not only adorably cute pets but also potential food items 🤮 so there are special regulations about what medications they’re allowed to have, for example.
@@spiritmatter1553 Wait what, rabbit is considered a exotic? It's like the most common animal in world.
As a horse owner, i laughed while reading this (and then cried)🤣
@@DuBstep115 it's exotic because most pet vets only really treat dogs and cats. Exotic vets specialize in a variety - small mammal (rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs etc), reptiles, birds etc.. they're very different animals from dogs and cats so the specialization in veterinarian school is different. So exotic just means not cats and dogs
As far as I know, exotic animals are basically just non-farm animals/usually wild animals.
Every feral pigeon in a mile of my house knows me by sight. I love them all so much
I have a pet pigeon. Only cons i see is the neverending cleaning and the pro is that they look like penguins 🐧
I have a new young pigeon. He is out of his cage when I’m home. I put poop towels where he likes to perch. The dander is no big deal to clean. He is a great companion. Far easier than dogs and cats.
Brent Carrington does he only poop in the spots he likes to perch, or do you find poop all over the place? I want a pigeon, wanna know what to expect
When I buy my own house, and have a large garden, I will keep some semi tamed/wild pigeons. I want them to be free to fly outside, and interact with their own kind. I'm sure I'll be able to look after Crows, Magpies, and Ravens too.
I'm in South London, and there are plenty of wild animals outdoor.
Pigeons are so cute. 🥰
Thank you for your comment and sharing the dream that you have with large garden and keeping pigeons :) I'm happy to hear that you find pigeons cute :)
Crows, magpies and ravens are super smart animals! Sometimes it's just creepy how incredibly intelligent they are :D
we happely trap the pigeons and kill them ^^
@@romyc3384 Nuuuu xD. I guess all they do is eat with their ruined selectively bred beaks hehe. So smol. Maybe I will experiment and see if the Crow.n can feed the pigeon. Maybe it will hunt it instinctively
That's nature unfortunately. The Crow has to eat
@@mylittlepigeon278 Free to fly outside. I had same idea. Once I bought my home this year the ex owner had a loft with 6 birds. I managed to add 14 more. I noticed that pigeons started to dwindle. I realized that I had projects for my pigeons other then falcons in the area. Falcons are very very destructive on any fancier flock. I fly my birds now in light rainy days. Since falcons and other flying predators don’t enjoy flying in this kind of weather. It’s been two months already without a single loss. Sometimes you learn hard way. This was my case. Don’t let it be yours as well.
I was brought a baby pigeon for rescue a few months ago. It still had some yellow baby head feathers. It was born disabled. Neither leg or foot worked. Now one leg works perfectly and the other has a frozen joint an the from toes don't work. This said Rocky can fly and move around pretty well. Also rocky sits on my shoulder for hours at a time. 😍
the powder is just the disintegrated tips of their feathers. It's called bloom. Almost all birds do it. Pigeons are messy birds, they aren't really clean enough to keep in a house, unless you only have one or two and stay on top of the cleaning maintenance
Thank you for the new term.. I never saw it in any literature.. only dander. So learned something new today :)
I agree, pigeons are messy.... same as parrots... same as finches... same as owls... And yes, I wouldn't recommend keeping a flock of pigeons in an apartment! :D hahha Same goes for cats, dogs.. or any other animal :D if you have one or two cats in an apartment - that's ok.. but if you have 20 cats in an apartment -that's no good. :D
Having any animal you will have to clean more: cats leave fur everywhere, dogs must be washed after every walking outside, otherwise all your apartment will be covered with whatever your dog will bring on their paws from the street :D.... So I wouldn't alienate pigeons, and say they are not clean enough to keep in an apartment...any pet require cleaning maintenance :D This way pigeons are just as mush work as a parrot, or a cat, or a dog not more and not less :)
There is something very special about pigeons - they know more than we think!
9:43 I love that you mentioned this because my budgie always does this. Whenever there is a weird silence, I go into the hall or look in odd places and sure enough he is silently eating unedible stuff. I wonder if he thinks he's being sneaky. ❤😭
Today I found him under the wooden drawers his cage is on, never been there before, nestled between some thick wires lmao
This whole video was so concise and enlightening, but that ending statement is the best freaking pet advice I have ever heard and I actually never thought of pets that way until now. Thank you for this.
Your bird is adorable by the way.
Thank you so much CourageousNobody for your kind words and your amazing feedback! It gave me goosebumps :) Because , honestly I thought that nobody would watch the ending of the video, but that advice was something that I learned in my life from having different pets. And it made me very happy to read that you found this advice useful :)
Your pigeon looks so happy with you! I love her and your video was awesome.
One thing you didn't mention that all bird owners should know is that all birds are sensitive to fumes and chemicals in the air, and even one use of a teflon nonstick pan can emit chemicals that are deadly. Candles, aerosols, cleaning chemicals, etc are also dangerous, and if anyone reading this has a bird, you need to look into this. You will need to do your research to purchase bird-safe cookware and stop using certain everyday items to keep your bird safe.
I worked at a local parrot store for several years and my friend runs her own parrot rescue. The most common reasons people give up their birds are because they can't handle the biting or they can't handle the noise level. A pigeon would better suit these people if they truly want a friendly bird but can't tolerate those things. Pigeons have wonderful mild temperaments and are so underrated.
But like you said they must be committed to spending quality bonding time with any feathered friend every single day. If it sounds like a chore, get fish or a snake instead.
I'm a macaw owner and when people ask if I recommend them as pets, I say no. I love mine to pieces but he has been through a dozen homes for a reason, because macaws are a lot to handle and they aren't right for most people long term. If you do get a parrot, start small. I only recommend macaws and cockatoos to people with lots of parrot experience and tons of patience because they are more likely to be prepared for the challenge.
Awesome video! I rescue pigeons and ensure they are seen by a vet before sending them to a wildlife centre for release. Some vets will be wildlife friendly and will treat birds for free if they are rescues. Sometimes I will get charged, but it really depends on the vet. The pet pigeons I have are ones that will not survive in the wild due to their injuries. The only thing I would say is if your pet bird suddenly "looks" like it is not well (ruffled feathers, head down on it's chest, change in its' poop etc) is to get it to a vet ASAP. Don't be tempted to leave it for a day or two to see how it goes - pigeons can die very quickly if not treated.
I just watched the entire video for some reason. I don't have a pet pigeon nor will I ever get one, but you have a nice video.
What a beautiful bird :) She looks very happy to be with you and well looked after. I love pigeons, they're so smart and cute :)
I have a spotted dove, everything described in this video is perfectly relevant. Except for the noise, mine vocalizes a lot.
Mine is free to go outside, she can go outside as she pleases but she comes back every night to sleep on my head. She still spends a lot of time with me even though other doves of her kind are in the garden.
All in all, they are truly amazing and fun pets.
my kids & i have a house pigeon (he prefers "house falcon") named horus. he lives in our house & doesn't have a cage. we found him on the street after he fell from his nest as a baby & his parents were shunning him. we fed a particular flock on our street, daily, so we knew the various birds well. he's been with us for about four years -- i hope he lives to 15. we love him so much & he makes our lives very happy. pigeons have so much to give & they're such a joy to have around. we had another house pigeon before horus, our dear compass, that we allowed outside but he eventually met his demise after about six years. losing compass was heartbreaking, i think i'll always miss him. that's why we keep horus indoors & he's none the wiser. he's spoiled, bossy, loving, smart, & funny. pigeons are also loyal. they are fantastic pets!
I feel extra lucky because in the past 2 years, some local italian vets were cheap enough to allow me taking care of several sick or injured feral pigeons.
But yes, they still have to be trained on pigeons, or willing to help. So not all vets are pigeon-approved.
Great video!
I raised some pigeons when I was young and I always remembered them fondly. Sweet little bubs.
Thank you so much! I have a pigeon, he was in the wild, and when a storm was coming, he flew onto my shoulder walking in my back patio. He didnt want to leave - so I built big aviary for him in my patio - he comes inside too, but he is comfortable in our patio for shelter - I love him. So glad he adopted me :) Also thoughtit was cool, I'm american, but like to learn languages, and just started Russian. One of my favorite.
Thank you so much for your kindness to this lovely bird!
There's no cons! Pigeons are awesome 🕊 🕊 🕊
When I lived at home in my teenage years, I used to catch wild pigeons. I had two different cages. The last one was in the garden at the bottom of our hill. Once the pigeons were used to getting fed I let them fly out. They always returned. Where I live now wild pigeons nested under eaves and had lots of squabs. One time a crow killed a squab and the parent drove off the crow from the dead baby. Then a vulture was seen tearing it apart while another vulture landed to share, but the first vulture flew away with the squab (I uploaded a video to UA-cam of this dead squab event). Later the landlord spiked and meshed off all the eaves and roof supports, even trapping one pigeon. I called the landlord to release that poor pigeon that got stuck between the mesh and an eave board. Some pigeons came back looking for a nest spot. Now no more. I loved to watch the pigeons and videoed the pigeons mating, videoed feeding babies, videoed bathing in a bird bath, and videoed males fighting, and videoed the whole flock flying around together. Transient pigeons would visit briefly. Nobody else here loved those pigeons. Just a bunch of old squabbling seniors here.
I can't explain to you how happy I am to see this video. I love pigeons and I'm so happy to see other people who like pigeons. Also the information on raising pigeons is super helpful. I was considering getting a pet pigeon in the future but now I know for sure I want one if I ever do get a pet again.
Small addendum: Pigeons can draw blood, but it is very rare!
Source: Personal experience (Had to take eggs from a male pigeon and he took extreme exception to that).
I am shocked how natural you are with presenting information in a friendly, easy to understand way!! Great presence, and great video.
I love pigeons. It's my favourite bird,I lived in Poland for 3 years in a city called Olsztyn,there are so many pigeons over there and me and my friends we went out catching them almost every day. I love to Pete them, give them hugs, feed them and have lost of fun with them.
My baby brother had an African coller neck dove 4 a pet! We had a ball with her,she wasn't difficult 2 keep. I guess it all depends on how one knows how 2 keep a pet. I loved Crystal a while lot,she was a blessing and a honey of a dove!🙂😄🤗😘❤️🐦
"pigeons produce a special powder-"
Totally relate to all the issues finding products and information for pet pigeons. I end up buying individual seeds from pet stores and grocery stores. I have found that pet pigeons are a perfect pet for introverts 😂 My pidge is my only best friend. Thanks for your video!
Hey Stephnicole307 ! Thank you very much for your comment and watching my video! I'm so happy to hear that you have a pet pigeon and that it became your best friend! It's amazing for me to realize that there are people out there that have the same attachment towards their pet pigeon as I do :)
Me - owns wild bird rescue with 20+ non releasable pigeons (now my pets)
Also me - intensly listening to the pros and cons
hahahahah!!! OMG Something Random ! your comment made me laugh!! 20+ pigeons is a flock! I just wanted to thank you for being very nice to them and keeping them in the safety of your home and letting them have the best lives the cay, since they are non releasable..... there still are good people out there.. and you are one of them!
This video was very informative yet entertaining! Love your little pigeon, she is so cute :) I have two green cheek conures and I love them dearly, but sometimes I do wish they were more like a pigeon lol
You haven't mentioned what is in my opinion one of the worse cons of having a pigeon as a pet and is that they poop quite a lot and obviously that can be everywhere as you cannot little train them.
Yes. 😁 Nearly as much as bunnies.
this is the biggest disadvantage
@@Elsi1400 oh absolutely my bunny can't control his bum he pops everywhere it drives me crazy Lol
@@SlimWu Yeah it is and it's a shame
They can be trained to wear something called pigeon pants which is like a fabric diaper you can put a liner in. No more poops around the house! Also they can be super cute like a little tux
That was a great video, really informative and you are really pleasant to listen to. As you said in the video, there is not that much information easily accessible about keeping pigeons as pets and this is a great insight. I recently started loking into what keeping pet pigeons is like and if it would be a good choice for me (in the distant future of not living in shared accommodation) and I feel like your video helped me get some more perspective and mentioned things I haven't think much about. It's so clear that you really love your pifeon, all the best to both of you x
Omg I've been wanting to adopt a pigeon companion and was wondering if they're legal to keep as pets in Toronto.. This video was literally perfect and so informative! Question- whereabouts is that pigeon feed store you showed in the video?
I know this doesn't answer your question, not even sure if its helpful because this is the only thing I know of and im in America, but theres a place in OHIO that makes pigeon feed, they're called Des Moines, and sell on amazon too.
theyre legal to keep as pets in Ontario!
you can also make your own pigeon feed at bulk barn
You are very engaging and natural doing this! Great video.
I love pigeons my whole life! For me they are one of the cutest and most adorable animals on the world!
Also my beloved father who died 2,5 years ago loved pigeons so much!
And also my mommy. She loves them and takes care of them if she find one that is hurt for example.
To be honest, I have never thought about getting a pigeon as a pet, but now you are inspiring me, this is possible and I would so much love to share my life with one of these beautiful and lovely birds!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!
Excellent video. You have great presentation and speaking skills and a natural calmness. A carrier pigeon arrived at the doorstep of my workshop a few weeks ago. The owner lives quite far away and does not want it back. I took an immediate liking to it and really enjoy it roaming around outside and even entering my shop inquisitively. Soon noticed these birds are smart. I feed it multiple times every day. Kind of hard to decide what to do with it but it feels the bird sort of chose us :)
I saw a REALLY fancy pigeon, all white, like it had those wide 70s pants and a fluff on the head- a show pigeon for sure. I saw it landing on a bridge guardrail while returning from school. It wasn't scared at all, so it must have been a pet. It was so smart that I had a whole photo session with it without it flying away, heck, it even posed a bit for me. Tilting it's head, spinning around, looking from side to side, stretching and holding a pose until I stopped snapping. Seriously, it never moved while I took the pictures even if I got closer to it or changed my position, always looking at the camera.
Pigeons are underrated pets, theyre so cute and happy
This was some very informative and valuable information. Thank you .
Your Pigeon is absolutely gorgeous! ❤️❤️ You can tell that you take excellent care of her. I want to get a pigeon eventually; I grew up in New York City, and I love them.
It looks like all that looking for pigeon videos for my floofy friend has paid off, because this was a very interesting video to stumble across! Luckily my pigeon pal doesn't do a lot of the cons (she's very clean, and not very fussy), but all that beautiful quiet disappears at the crack of dawn until after breakfast.
Even though it's a little too late to convince me pigeons are great pets (they are), resources like this have been sorely lacking for non-parrot birds, and this video would be helpful in explaining to some of the doubters in my family why pigeons are not that strange as pets.
I liked the ending in particular. It’s very good advice, and it was phrased beautifully.
Thank you very much for watching my video! You are one of the rare people who watched it till the end :) I really appreciate your positive feedback about the ending! :)
I really enjoyed every single minute of this video. Thank you for sharing.
I definitely want to get a pet pigeon one day! Thanks for this video.
Oh the advice on the last part should be a quote every pet owner-to-be should consider! Well said!
Yes, Pigeons are awesome
That is one beautiful saddle back blue barb show Homer.
Very good choice👍
You are fantastic at this. Making videos and talking with that youtube flow!!!!
mine is a wild rock pigeon i found as a baby puff ball. He was almost dead when i found him. they actually do not need pigeon specific food. Ive been feeding mine chicken scratch for years now and he is very healthy. pigeons are very hardy and usually dont need much special care. they definitely do need a lot of attention though, it can sometimes be annoying but they are wonderful pets and i highly reccomend. as a side note, they are rather nippy and will bite often though its not because theyre aggressive but because thats how they play.
The pigeons that live on the roofs of the buildings around my house come and hang out with me every day. I think I would be lost without them, especially in the last 2 years. I hate to say this, but lately they have proven themselves to be better friends than most of the people I know.
🤣Pigeons don't destroy stuff... mine has broke multiple glasses, coffee mugs, a plate and dented a few pans. She is straight up a flying cat.
thank you so much for this! I’ve been researching how to take take of pigeons and found almost nothing. For my birthday I want to have a pet pigeon so i’m looking through anything I can find that helps me learn more abt them! thank u again!!
Informative, nice video, plus your English was very good, well done. Your feathered companion was a sweet little critter
I've had birds my whole life, largely parrots but other birds also. What you said about the messiness of how pigeons eat is, in my experience, just a *bird* thing.
I remember one day when I was a teenager, my grandmother (who raised me and called my conure her "grandbird" and cooked breakfast for him when I was out of town...this resulted in one of my all time favorite exchanges: "But who eats toast without butter?!?!?" "Gram. THE BIRD. The bird eats toast without butter. If you have to make him his very own piece, you can give him *plain* toast. Omg.") just casually said that birds are always super messy. She had worked at a pet shop when I was little, she had loads of experience with many types of birds, and it just hit me like a ton of bricks that yeah, those little brats are all so friggin messy. And what is it with some seeds being inedible? They are _identical_.
What a delightful and informative video! Are you going to cover caring for a greater number of pigeons? Or training them? Thanks so much for sharing!
such a beautiful note to end on
Great video!!! Toby is so beautiful and the info u share is really helpful. Sadly I guess I do not have the conditions to have a pet pigeon right now but we have a feeder on my balcony and we receive visitors everyday such as Inca doves, house finches and sparrows.
Just a few days ago we helped a baby pigeon as she had fell off her nest. Luckily her parents kept taking care of her and now she is ready to practice longer flights.
I only have one question regarding having a pet pigeon, how do you deal with the bird's poop?
It is great finding your UA-cam channel!!!!
Useful indeed! Good stuff, thank you.
Thank you for giving me realistic expectations
I built a loft for my birds with cedar siding and a Hobbiton color theme and keep around 40 homers and a pet fantail named Alba. It was way overkill but I had to have a cool spot for my birds. If u want a smart homer with good pedigree as a friend or partner for your bird, I’ll send u one for free but I don’t have any saddles like him although I’ve always thought about getting a pair. I sold a bird to a guy who raised it as a pet and he puts pigeons pants on it and everything it’s ridiculous lol. Anyways, God bless and I hope your bird is doing well. If u need any expert advice on pigeon health give us a shout, we’ve brought several birds back from near death from either hawks or sickness 🇷🇴💪🇺🇸
Very informative. Thank you.
Wow, this video was very entertaining and I learned a lot about having a pet pidgeon. Thank you.
Great video, everyone should get a talk like this when considering any pet...
Came to see if I would be deterred from getting a pigeon. This made me want to get a pigeon even more.
Great advice and information. I have have doves and the care is very similar. My doves will only eat the very small, light-colored, round seeds. But I’ve heard from breeders around here that they don’t need a LOT of gravel. But they DO need it since they swallow the seeds while. (?) and if you only get one dove or pigeon, you need to spend as much time with it as you can. If you cannot dedicate the time and attention, then get two so they will always have a companion.
I have a pair of ring neck doves slightly smaller than a common pigeon and have just found they will eat striped sunflower seeds they also love safflower.
Thanks for sharing. It is a informative Video.
Thanks for video! I have a pigeon in my apartment and i really didnt find much on them .And yes its hard to find pigeon food thats good without all the seeds. Thanks for the informing video i needed it!
Lovely bird… and all kidding aside, your command of English is astonishing! Bravo!! You must have worked very hard to get it to this point.
I literally work 8-4 come home and never go out even on weekends. I think a pigeon might actually be worth considering, they're not noisy or destructive and they'll wanna be around me, which is what I honestly want out of a pet. I'm needy too adorable pigeon! I just have to find out more info, save up a bit more money (for vet bills) and prepare before I find a breeder.
Such a cool and informative channel! Thank you, subscribed:}
You're a delight and I would gladly listen to you even reading the phonebook!
I related to so much of this!! I have a rescued Birmingham Roller. She is a piece of WORK… but I love her! Finding the feed was the hardest. She HATES millet, which is 80% of most mixes. I ended up buying 3 different varieties of feed and mixing them together. Quite expensive, but I’ll never run out!
Thank you for crediting the music!
Hey Leomerya12! Oh yes, no problem :) Happy to hear that you liked some music from the video.... There are very cool artists out there that are not famous, but make very good music :)
its so amazing to see the bird is so tame.. thanks for sharing a great video to us.. keep connected 👍❤️
Great video 👍Pigeons are beautiful pets 😍
A great first video, very informative.
Thank you for the positive feedback! :) It means a lot for me since I am just starting on UA-cam :)
Great Video! Very informative. Plus Im in LOOOVE with your necklace i must know where and what it is! lol
Thank you very much for your compliment about my video and the necklace! :D .. oh the necklace LOL... i bought it from a small boutique called Vivah in a mall.... I don't know if they sell stuff online though :( but the stone that I have in that necklace is Topaz... probably not real , cuz it was cheap :D
True facts, my parrot is slowly eating my books and my fireplace 🥲
Adoption is always the right thing to do since so many pigeons are bred for racing and so many dumped by breeders because they’ll never become racers. We should also be advocating for an end to breeding.
My neighbor has a lot of semi wild pet pigeons. They often chill out in his house roof
Just found this channel and I love it, thank you for a very informative video. I'd love to have a pet pigeon myself (:
I never trained my pigeon but when i took it outside after 2 years it always stayed with me
Oooh waouh ! You are just à wonderful young Lady ! I wish I could have a friend like you ❤ I feel like a crazy woman here in France when I say that I have a pigeon at home... poor animal, he got hurt by a car and won't fly again, I wasn't going to let him alone on the road 😢
Spassiba for your great video, you're amazing 😊
Ohh new channel about pigeons! Love yours, look like a seagull color wise! Im still considering adding pigeons to my flock, since i used to have dander allergy.. but im not allergic to canaries, lovebirds, and chickens. So not sure if pigeons will trigger me
after getting my pet dove its been nothing but PRO PRO PRO PRO's i love her with all my goddamn heart
Wonderful video. Thank you!
Oh my. Thank you so much for your last words in the video about not trying to fit a pet in your lifestyle. Yes, instead they should be a nice addition in your life in order to both of you being happy. That's just what I needed to hear, as I see now. ❤
(And sorry for my English, I am also Russian, wip ))

I have the luck to live literally not even a kilometer away from a pigeon vet! I’m planning to get one as soon as possible, thank you for this amazing video!
I'm very happy to hear that you liked my video! It's also great to hear that you are actually thinking to get a pet pigeon! wow! You have an avian vet near by! That's a sign! :D
