This sweet little boy could be turned into a house pet. He went from egg to junior in an aviary right in our front room. He was fed by his mommy and daddy until he feed on his own. He has only been indoors and likes to walk all over my daughters and sit with the other baby pigeons we are raising. We named him Blanco, but you can name him whatever you wish. We also has a pigeon diaper for anyone who does want him for a household, never been used.The little stains on the front of his feathers will come out when he molts.
