Tried and failed with a pipette for about 8 straight hours. Applied this method and the bird just full-on went for it. Easily the most practical and useful video I have watched this year. Good work!

thank you so much for the slide video, helped me pause and write, and it sure made my orphan pigeons happier too, so much easier than what i was doing.... it mimics the leathery feel of a parent birds beak sides, mine started gobbling their food down 1st time!! 😍

Probably the best video on how to make pigeon baby food and feeding them!!! Thanks just what I needed for my young bird.

All I can say ... You done a great job thank you.

This literally SAVED my bird

Hi, great video, easy to understand and to-the-point. One suggestion for folks, instead of sacrificing a syringe, a beverage bottle works just as well if you hunt around for one with an appropriate opening. A little more challenging to get the formula in it but you can always use a food funnel. Much cheaper - AND you're recycling!

I was feeding a baby pigeon, when my parents saw a syringe in my flat, I had a lot to explain to them...

Many thanks for this. I found a young pidgeon in my garden that cant fly properly yet. He wont eat for me but I will try this tomorrow 😊

Thank you for publishing and illustration .

I didn't had the plastic gloves on hand but I had balloons that I adjusted to the syringe easily and helped me tons with my rescue dove. She's now month and half old and I still can't believe I was able to help her this much. Was very lost on how to help and thought she was as good as dead. But she's well and strong, also, the food option was amazingly helpful. We have mourning doves very close to the house that come daily wihtout fail. If a male takes a liking to her I'm thinking I might be able to release her. (I get her out to take a bit of sun and the doves come to visit her), maybe I'm hoping for too much but if she doesnt like any of them she already have a loving family that spoils her lots as I'm hearing a lot that human raised doves will die if released. (Even tho I'm thinking on adding some dove friendly perches and nesting areas so she might be able to stay close by and safe.

Thanks for the video! I am wondering how old is the pigeon in the pic at the end of your video? We found one that looks exactly like that!

Subscribed as this was an extremely helpful video! we have just rescued a pigeon that has been got by some sort of hawk and all its neck and head had been bitten! Blood was trickling down her! Just about to try your formula, hope this helps the little pigeon! Once again thank you! Plus have u got and tips for her because she isn't wanting to eat the food and she is slowly spiralling down hill.... Once again thanks and have a great day!
