Subject: [MickaCoo] Do Pigeons and Rabbits go together?

Hello!   I have the below inquiry out to Pij Talk and bunny rescue, does anyone know of mixing Bunnies and Pigeons?


Hello! I have an aviary that is 8ft W by 14ft L for domestic pigeons, some pets and others are rescue. The majority of my Pigeons are Kings and I have a few homers and one blind racer as well. I decided my pigeon population would never be more than 16 (I don't allow them to fly).

Anyway, I often enough have been to the animal shelters to pick up or check on Pigeons and I see all these Beautiful homeless Rabbits. I am researching with no luck, if anyone had experience having Rabbits in the same aviary with Pigeons. I had Bunnies when I was younger and they are really easy to potty train to a litter box. I could imagine if they lived with Pigeons they would need to have a good bath every now and again!

Anyone hear of this mix? I am hesitant to try it, not wanting to make a commitment to a Shelter bunny and have it not work. I am in touch with Rabbit rescue, but they are slow in responding or did not like the idea. I was thinking of fostering a few bunnies with intention to adopt, so I could try it.

Any thoughts?

Thank you
Cheryl
