hand rearing

Hi
thanks to faith i will go into hand rearing pigeons.
1. You have to buy a very good parrot hand rearing mixture.
2.If you can find a way of feeding the young either by a syringe or something like it.
3.At frist the baby will not hink that you are trying to feed it so you need to show that you are by opening the mouth and puting a little food in it once it has cottened on to this then you will see the baby eating it by its self.
4.You will need to feed every 3 hours not at night
5.Once 3 weeks you can put some small bird seed down and springle on the floor they will soon start to pick at it.
6.Once 6 weeks the baby will be fully interpentant and eating by its self
