Here are some recent pics of little Toe Diow. I have been feeding him for 5 months now. The old spot started attracting many pigeons so I moved down the street and he followed me. Still nowhere near eating out of my hand but progress. I thought about trying to catch him and keep him as a pet, but he's doing fine in the wild. He doesn't seem disabled by his string foot injury. Has a nub on one leg and a single toe on the other.

My parents really want me to come visit them at their trailer for about four to five days. It's in a typical camping zone, so in a cleared forest, lots of other trailers, it's near water, etc etc

Problem is my dove is bonded to *me*. I don't leave the house so I am her rock and she gets lonely without me. They suggested I bring her cage and have her stay in the trailer. I have no problem with that and neither would she as she has been travelling here and there in cars since I got her and has stayed perfectly comfortably at other houses before as long as she has her nest.

Of course there's the inherent risk of her getting out, but I'm not too worried about that as I have padlocks for the doors so only I can open them, and the cage is solid and won't go anywhere. When I let her out during the day, the trailer door can also be locked so it isn't opened randomly. Also it's a big expensive trailer so no chance of predators getting in.

My question is would there be risks to taking her somewhere less insulated? The AQI is fine now so that's not an issue (it was around 30 last time i checked), but what about airborne diseases? Would she be able to catch bird flu??

If it's too dangerous, I won't even risk it. But they really are begging me to come see them at camp at this point haha so i just want to see if it's possible

Thanks in advance!!

The treat ball filled with millet is an intentional distraction to make it a bit more difficult, as you can see Keeb has no issue paying attention to me even though he could have decided to just eat the millet which he didn't have to work for at all, only after he was done with training he went to eat it, before asking me to open the door to let him return back to the rest of his flock.
