Does anyone have a source for live or dead pigeons in the abbotsford area? I need some for dog training.
thanks
Matt

build or buy a trap, not too hard to catch your own.
Do a search on Pigeon Trap and you'll be set. Most dog supply stores sell them, or just the enterances as well.
Very best,
Ian

I have a trap that I bought and it works well if you have time and place to leave it for a while. I've found it's easier to just bait a flock with some corn and then throw a large salmon net over a few when they gather round my feet. Usually pick up 4 or 5 at a time.
Try the livestock auction on 56th Avenue in Langley (by the airport).
I haven't been there for a few years now but would be willing to bet you'll find some there.

Dude: if the discharge of a shotgun was legal in Surrey, I would fill a bushel for you.
Some idiot has a flock of pigeons in my area.
They crap on the laundry and just generally annoy me.
I wanted a duck to hang around my pond, eat slugs and weeds; but oh no, not allowed.
Yet you're allowed to have something like 10 poop bombers, go figure.
I wonder if you could have an Ocelot at your place Rob! That would take care of those pigeons! :mrgreen: Fred

Hi Fred, ernie trachuk from enries excavating raises pigeons if you look him up in the phone book he might sell you some pigeons and work a deal on his culls.

mrdoog have you tried one of the plastic owls they sell in hardware stores? Worked pretty well for me when I had a pigeon problem.

Here in Winnipeg we used to go underneath railway tressles at night(take a flashlight) and used a really big fishnet and just scoop them up, same in old barns......free pigeons.

I am still looking for a trap. In the meantime, I think it will be my old Cooey with Subsonics and my stinger flashlight. Maybe a dip net for a few live birds. You're right about the eating and shitting part....what about the procreation end of things? Aren't they flying rabbits in that regard?
thanks
