Two Care Questions
by Shae Irving 13 Apr '11

13 Apr '11

Hi Pij People: I have two questions for anyone who might want to respond: 1) Do any of you give your pij probiotics after they have been on antibiotics? If so, for how long and in what amounts? My friend who raises chickens, geese, and ducks suggested that I do this for Yuzu and Quince and she gave me some from her supply. 2) Does anyone have suggestions for helping a reluctant eater? Quince never stops eating and I am concerned that Yuzu is not eating enough. She really likes her lettuce, but that's not enough! Any feedback appreciated.

[Mickaboo Discuss] Doves in Oakland Need Your Help!
by Kim Flaherty 13 Apr '11

13 Apr '11

My apologies if this has already been posted. Unbelievably, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors is planning a dove release as part of some commemoration ceremony on Friday, April 22. Emails are urgently needed to try and prevent these doves from being released: http://www.peta.org/action/action-alerts/Doves-in-Oakland-Need-Your-Help.as… Thank you.

New Adoptees
by Shae Irving 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Hello Everyone: Elizabeth invited me to join this group and suggested that I begin by sharing a post I wrote for my blog today, introducing my new MickaCoo adoptees: Yuzu and Quince (the pigeons formerly known as Snowball and Popcorn). I am beyond thrilled to have these two beautiful birds here at home. (My partner, Stewart, loves them too, even though this was my idea!) I am so grateful for MickaCoo, MickaBoo, Elizabeth, and all of you who make this work possible. I look forward to participating as much as I can. Here is the link to the post that introduces my babies ... http://hitchhikingtoheaven.com/2011/04/yuzu-quince.html Feel free to write and say hello! Best, Shae ________________________ Shae Irving P.O. Box 275 | Fairfax, CA | 94978 tel. 415.497.5306 http://hitchhikingtoheaven.com

I went to a book signing at the Marin Humane Society tonight for Wayne Pacelle's (President of the Humane Society of the US) book, *The Bond*. And I took my foster pigeon Betti along. I gave Wayne a MickaCoo T-shirt and a MickaCoo flyer and a Mickaboo brochure. (Oh- and I highly recommend the book!) -- 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
