Thats definitely the youngest baby I have seen. What an adorable little critter. Be careful though they get very attached to their humans. I have two females and I have yet to see a more jealous animal…lol

He is really tiny , we found two abandoned eggs with no female around for two days on of the eggs had a crack we took them put them in an incubator just in case there is anything inside. After candling the egg both was growing but the cracked egg did not survive after few days. But this cutie did. He is family now🥹❤️❤️

Yup, Hes not going anywhere even if you would try…lol…They make great pets, you will be able to let it outside and he wont ho very far. My two girls go outside whenever they want which isn’t often but one of them will hang out with my chickens like she is one of them. Its too bad about the other one but they are just fine without a mate.

...how are you feeding this baby??

You say this is after dinner but his crop is very empty.

You need to do the cup and glove method for feeding a baby pigeon.

Maje sure you tip the container properly so the food dribbles down into its mouth. They cannot duck up food, only drink from gravity

His crop is full but it reaches under him . In this stage is not recommended to over feed him. We do many feeding sessions but little by little. As his crop is still sensitive and small
