How about a base ball hat? It could say... on the front of it.

I think that then...you wouldn't have any explaining to do. You could also probably count on other humans keepng their distance.

That's a cool idea. :Yes:

We should get hats printed with this logo on them, then sell them & donate the $$$$ to a pigeon rehab!

On the back it could say Pigeon Angels & the site. :Yes:

Robin...that is a fabulous idea!

I actually do that with the calendars I create. A portion of the proceeds goes into a fund that I use to donate to avian wildlife rehabilitation and education.
This was pre Pij-n-Angels days. I've expanded to greeting cards and a couple other things now, and still donate a portion of the proceeds to avian wildlife rehabilitation and education.

These are three youngsters in the newly finished cage.

The newly contstructed cages are a work of art indeed and I'm delighted that the inhabitants also have a view of your lovely garden.

Question marks were more for initiation of suggestions as I'm planning to invest some thinking time for design of the one mentioned above.

The cage looks great, Plamenh.
The doves look quite content. :Yes:

Thank you Cindy.

Im just curious about the bottoms of your cages , are there trays in the bottoms or do you just place paper that you cage daily in them ??

No trays for now. There is a thick flexible plastic sheet on the bottom and newspapers on top. I use roll of carpet protector plastic and cut to size.

The cages look great! And I agree that the doves have a lovely view!
I sympathise with what you said about being covered in scratches after working on them. I have used similar, but thinner, material to make a trap to catch ferals for treating them, and also a corridor+extension for Piper's cage -- and I got covered in scratches too, plus blisters on my hands from using the pliers!
But even all that is barely a match for the damage Hercules can do!!! :eek: Yesterday, in desperation, I put a sock over his head to stop him from pecking me while I changed the newspaper!

Not so for you, Plamen !

You're ... making fake eggs?!?
I'd be happy to send you some woody ones, senegal size (tho' no, they wouldn't get there in time for this clutch).

What do you use to make them from? Clay - or... ???

If you ever have extra real eggs, I've blown them out and filled them with glue (slowly, over a period of days - and if anyone knows what might harden faster, I'd love to know).
Of course they're the perfect substitute

Best wishes,
Carol

Could you fill them with plaster of paris?

Guess I could, just using what materials are on hand.
In SA if you don't know exactly what is trade name of the product, you may end up purchasing some strange product totally unsuitable to finish what you started. When I looked for wood filler, ended up with putty. Ordered solder for gutters, delivered silicon. Asked for PVC folio… list goes on.
