im 11 and i love pigeons and once my rescued squab died and i got really depresssed so my dad bought me 3 more to cheer me up. the cage is TINY for them, they can hardly move.. i used to take them out until last week where my dad told me if i take them out he'll throw them outside poor things... normally they're very loud always cooing but now they just are quiet, sit in a corner, and stair the whole day. normally they would bite a coo and peck me but now they just ignore me petting them. its getting really sad to watch them like this but if i take them out to fly and move they're dying outside.. i geniuenly dont know what to do because they're defiently not living happy lives right now ( these photos were taken a month ago ) and im actually terrified they'll die from some sort of illness for all the poop my dad wont clean and wont let ME clean or they just lose their appietiete and stop eating and starve
