Any pigeon people out there?
My parents found a lost racing pigeon in the garden a few months ago. They didn't want to contact the owners as I was once told by a pigeon fancier that they just snap returned birds necks!
He/She has been living in the garden, and spends most of the time chilling out on the pergola. My mother feeds him/her pigeon corn everyday, and the bird currently looks like it might explode any second.
We are just worried about the chances of him/her surviving the winter outdoors? We know nothing about pigeons, so we aren't sure what to do. Could we get a dovecote or the like? The bird is getting pretty feral now, so I don't think it would take very well to being cooped up!
Advice would be appreciated!
