Pigeons

Turns out my friend brought me 60 pigeons. I gave half to my sponsor and kept the rest. 13 are flying around in the mews whilst the rest are in the freezer. We had to get rid of one of the count due to a nasty looking sore on its breast. Tonight i sprayed for Mite and Lice. My step-daughter Shelby is loving every minute of this. In the next few days I'm going to build a small pigeon coop , ill post pictures when I'm done. So far i have a source of food for my hawk all year round which i am very happy about. Wont be the same as getting the old squirrels or rabbits but its a back up for when days are lean. I want to get some quail and keep a few off them too. My wife things im nuts and crazy but secretly she i loving every minute off it. At the moment all the pigeons are roosting in the mews.
