I usually take them out the day after they hatch, but only for a minute. Be very gentle with them, they are quite fragile at that age.At what age of baby pigeons is ok to take them out of the nest box and handle them?

If the parents are scared of you it might stress them a little, but no more than if you walked by and they flew off.Thanks. This does not create any issues with the parents, such as them getting stressed over it, or even worse, after you handle the baby bird the parents no longer want to tend to the baby?
