If you're looking for a refreshing addition to your family, meet Coocumber! Pigeons like Coocumber are very affectionate and loyal pets and have been companion birds for thousands of years. Her diet should consist of pigeon feed and veggies, along with a few juicy invertebrates as a treat. Pigeons don't like to perch on branches like some other birds, so Coocumber will need a big cage with raised platforms and flat perches so she can still check out what's going on. Some daily out-of-cage time in a bird-proofed home will ensure that Coocumber can still be social and feel like she's a part of the family! She'll really enjoy this free time where she gets to stretch her wings, watch the goings-on, and groom. You can always consider getting her used to wearing "pigeon pants" to prevent her from having accidents! Because pigeons are so social, Coocumber would love to have a human who could spend time with her for most of the day, or maybe even another pigeon friend for company. She's still a bit nervous, but with a patient person willing to put in the time and effort, she'll become your best friend! Pigeons are unique feathered friends and great companions! Make an appointment and give Coocumber a visit to see if she's the right companion for you!
