My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Update 9/8/22: In an unusual move (for pigeons if not people) Chocolate divorced Horace! The couple went to a new aviary and Chocolate fell in love with Ashi. As the world turns.

Update 2/27/21: Unfortunately, Chocolate's mate, Champagne passed away. She has remarried and is making a new life with charming Horace.

Update 1/22/22: Chocolate's mate, Champagne, developed life-threatening health issues and he came back to Palomacy for intensive medical fostering. Of course, Chocolate came along, too! We are hopeful that Champagne will recover and that this lovely couple will again be available for adoption into a gentle home.

This little Roller pigeon, Chocolate, is a former 'show' bird surrendered to Palomacy with six flockmates. Lucky girl, she is happily married to Octavia Champagne, and they are adopted and HOME!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require an online adoption application, phone screen & home visit and offer lots of support and coaching all along the way. Our adoption fee is $10/bird and our expectations for adopters are:
-Appropriately sized, safe and uncrowded cage or aviary approved by Palomacy
-Supervised, safe out-of-cage time (if not living in an aviary) daily
-No free flight/uncaged outside time
-Protection from hazards including but not limited to escape, pets, predators, fumes and toxins
-Companionship- lots of your time or another bird's (not home alone)
-Avian vet care if sick or injured
-Compassionate, healthy care that provides for the bird's nutritional (including lighting), physical and emotional well-being
-No breeding, birth control if bird has a mate (real eggs replaced with fakes which we provide)
-A forever home (through sickness and health, for better or worse) with a pet-care plan in place should something happen to you
-No selling, sporting or business use of birds
-Return to Palomacy if unable to keep the bird (This is not desired- we expect that you are providing a forever home!)

Go meet their pets

We are a volunteer-powered rescue and our birds are lovingly cared for in the private homes and backyard aviaries of our foster volunteers. Potential adopters can make appointments to meet our birds and we are at adoption & outreach events almost every weekend. See our Events page at www.PigeonRescue.org and visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/PigeonDiplomacy/ for details.
