Re: [MickaCoo] [Mickaboo Discuss] fancy duck available at San Jose animal shelter
by Elizabeth Young 30 Mar '11

There's a duck like that at the Harvest Home Animal Sanctuary aviary in Stockton. His name is Don King and the rescued king pigeons that they adopted were very attracted to him. I was told the breed's name but have forgotten (crested?). Apparently breeding them that way also creates a very soft spot (or sometimes even a hole) in their skull.

Mickaboo volunteer request - Oakland, 4/17
by Lee, Pamela A 30 Mar '11

30 Mar '11

The Oakland Zoo has invited Mickaboo/Coo to participate in their Earth Day activities on April 17. It's an educational event with a twist - we're asked to have an "activity" at our table, which could be related to pet care, pet adoption, etc. Who would like to help represent our organization at this event? And to help think of and create a simple "activity"?

People are always surprised to hear that king pigeons are meat birds...
by Elizabeth Young 30 Mar '11

Here's an article from one of our rescue partners, Harvest Home Animal Sanctuary, that addresses the topic of squab. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of meeting a "squab", they are incredibly sweet, innocent and vulnerable little beings. I've attached a picture of MickaCoo-rescued squab Butters <http://www.rescuereport.org/2010/02/butters.html> who wound up as a stray at SFACC in Jan 2010. (He's all grown up into a big man bird now and adopted.) I'd say eating squab is very much like eating a puppy. Pass it on. Squab Production: Another Cruel Delicacy<http://www.examiner.com/animal-welfare-in-stockton/squab-production-another…> Please and thank you.

Sad News
by Elizabeth Young 30 Mar '11

30 Mar '11

I'm sorry to tell you that the king pigeon we took in from SFACC yesterday, Big Daddy (Poppy to me) didn't live through the night. It looks like he died in his sleep, warm on a heating pad, with some baby bird food mush in his tummy. I believe he was in an advanced state of starvation. I loved him already. Thank you for all that you do to help birds like Poppy. e -- Elizabeth * * Until they all have homes, don't buy, don't breed- adopt. www.RescueReport.org www.MickaCoo.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGjyooh3Yo0
