So today on Facebook some said they had a racing pigeon in there back garden, so I thought I’d go pick it up and get old of the owner and get it back too then as I thought it’s probably going to be local lol.

How wrong was I the owner a pensioner and lives in Suffolk 🤦‍♂️

Well guess what all I guess I own a racing pigeon and it’s a hen lol so I guess I’ll have to re register with the rpra and I guess I best get a shed set up because she needs a good home 🤣

Don’t judge the shed I know it needs to be water tight ect but it’s the best I have atm for the pigeon and I do actually need to dismantle the shed and tidy it up and repaint it and move it.

But she’s safe and sound and has fresh water and she got lost a month ago off the top of the loft

So I removed all the old nasty carpet and cleaned up the inside and she’s just staying on the floor atm I’m guessing she’s completely tired, unfortunately for now she have too be on wild bird seed for a few days then I’ll try to figure out what todo and where to start

I remember that loft mate, it was a very nice loft. Just take the best sections off it, and make a good smaller one.

This young bird has been around for over a week, some seed and peanuts. With daily fresh water. I hoping it will crack off home.
