How do I take care of a bird?

Yesterday I was eating a sandwich in my yard when this little guy walked past...


I thought it was a massive morning dove at first, but I noticed a tag on its foot. I grabbed a fishing net and chased it around the yard for a few minutes until I caught it. I googled the code on its tag which told me that it was a lost racing pigeon, nearly 400 miles from its home. I couldn't get ahold of the owner.

I fed it bread and named it Peter. Today I tried to let him go... and he wouldn't leave. He sat on the railing on my porch until I put him back in the cage. Now I have a pet racing pigeon and I don't know what to do. Do any of you have pet birds? How does one properly care for a big bird like this without torturing it?

First of all, that is not a big bird, that's your first mistake. Big birds are things like eagles, hawks, etc. aka birds that would eat yours like scooby doo would a hamboger.

Second, do you plan on returning this bird? If so, the bird requires a very special diet compromised of macarones and coconut water to stay in pristine condition. The owners will not be happy if you continue to feed it peasant bread you sick son of a bitch.

But, if you could upload a video of the bird and provide stats such a wing length, density of feathers, breast torque (all easy tests to do with cheap tools) then shoot me a pm and I would be willing to meet up and check it out.

Eat it, pigeon breast is fucking delicious. You don't even need to gut them to get them off.

My sister found a bird and kept it when she was a young teenager. After a week she took it to the animal warden or something and they told her everything she was doing for the bird was wrong. So be careful.

BUT OP FOR REAL....


Use this little guy to pick up chicks. Start posting on your social media about how you have a carrier pidgeon. And then tie a note to the pidgeon, drive it to some girls house, drop it off, drive away, and text the chick to go outside and look for the pidgeon who is on his way to deliver a message.


This will get you laid.

I feel like pigeons are to fragile for that but maybe not. Works great on grouse and pheasant though

This kid should be swimming in pussy. Loves animals and has 3 hot sisters. Obviously he doesn't want them of course but having direct access to 3 separate female friend groups = lots and lots and lots of girls who love animals and love nice guys who love animals.


OP I gained a lot of respect for you since you showed NS you have some hot sisters DONT waste it you better show what you did for this lovely bird to every single one of their friends so you get multiple dick sucks a night they will be fighting all over you. Nice gestures like this can go a long way you might even be able to pull off a threesome if you play it right. Seriously dude you could really milk this nice gesture of saving this animal for a LOT of pussy if you play your cards right and blow up some friends of your sisters social media with bird pics.

(And if that doesn't appeal to you pm SJW for some buttstuff he prolly is impressed too.)

I'll use the pigeon to attract more pigeons... then I can release them from a cage during sunset as I passionately get down on one knee and ask a girl to be fuck buddies.

Flying sewer rat....let that thing go or try way harder to contact the owner through work, etc.

It probably doesn't know how to take care of itself in the wild if its somewhat domesticated
