Rango the Bird needs a home

Rango (left, shown here with her special friend Cinder) is only two months old but has gone from being shy & tense to very comfortable & loving with people. Rango (who is the sibling of Omen & child of Tommy & Clementine) is one of the nine English Carrier pigeons we rescued when their person no longer had time for his pigeon-keeping hobby. Their coop was terribly unsafe and they were lucky to get out alive. (Tragically, the day before we rescued the English carriers, all 40 of the racing pigeons housed next door in an adjacent coop were slaughtered by raccoons.) English Carriers were bred to be very long legged, long necked and to have the ridiculously overgrown opercelum (cere) that you see on their beaks. There is nothing wrong with them except that humans messed with the perfect design of pigeons through selective inbreeding to create hundreds of different breeds such as these. Venetia is currently single but being courted by several bachelors.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/
