How do pigeons lose their feet?! Several times I have seen pigeons without feet!  This morning I stopped to get a breakfast sandwhich and the thing had way too much bread so I tore pieces off and threw them for the birds and I noticed one was walking slower than the rest and was hobbling and when I looked I could see he had no feet. Just 2 little stumps!  Is it from disease? Do pigeons maybe attack other pigeons, like did other pigeons just peck his feet off because he wasn't as strong as them? I have seen this three times and it freaks me the hell out and I feel so bad for those little sky rats 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

when i lived in Sf i noticed a bunch of these feetless pigeons. i also noticed that several of them had somehow become entangled in strings, or threads which were cutting off the circulation to their feet.
tried chasing one down to cut the threads off and save its toes but it flew away  | |

But i did manage to throw chunks of bread away from him for the faster birds and while they were over busy fighting over the pieces I threw him a piece all for himself that he didn't have to fight anyone else for  2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

I think they do better than I would if I didn't have feet! | |

I can't stand them, they make me feel really sick. I wish they would just go away..  Her kisses left something to be desired... the rest of her. | |

The pizza guy at my work raises pigeons to race them. He has a freakin' coop on the roof of his house. AND he gave me two for Christmas! Told me I could come visit them to see how they are doing. No thank you. I named them Brad and Angelina and called it a day. They did poop on the bartender I hate though. Smart birds. | |
