Merry and Pippin are up for adoption! Merry (female with white markings) was found abandoned on the floor of a Broadway St parking garage in Asheville on July 1st of this year. A good Samaritan called about her and now she's enjoying the spoiled life of a pet pigeon. Pippin (male with fluffy feet) was found in an abandoned apartment among two deceased siblings in Tennessee. I got a call about him from a vet acquaintance I had recently met at a parrot symposium asking if I could take him in. Of course I agreed, especially since Merry needed a friend of her own age. I discovered a hernia (last photo) when examining him after his intake on July 8th, but he got a small surgery done by my vet to put it back later that week. He's all healed up and a spunky little man now. They became bonded while I raised them together and have clearly decided to stay together as bonded mates so they need to be adopted together. They both will let you have them step onto your hand but I've noticed Merry has been more willing since they matured. She has also recently laid her first egg (it's been replaced with a fake egg since) and they're diligently taking turns sitting on and defending it (Videos in comments). These two will enjoy a home who will keep them indoors and let them fly around the room/house for exercise. They are adorable to watch interacting with each other and you can also interact with them once they gain your trust (which shouldn't take long). If you (or know someone who is) interested in adopting these two sweet babies, please reach out to me to get an application started! (All my adoptable rescues have been DNA sex tested, dewormed, treated for feather lice, and vaccinated for PMV prior to being posted. I will vet all potential adopters myself as well.) Location is Asheville, NC, USA but willing to meet up to two hours away.
