The adult pigeons were kept in a cage, watching the big cats walk around the room all day, which scared them into depression, their appetite dropped drastically, and they ended up starving to death.
The young pigeons didn't know the fear of cats, but they needed careful attention and regular feeding.
Chen Zhou got so busy that he forgot the time. After work, he was dead tired, had a hurried meal, and collapsed on the bed. As soon as his head hit the pillow, he started snoring, not caring whether the pigeons had eaten.
With his way of raising them, even turtles wouldn't grow well, let alone the more delicate birds.
But Chen Zhou actually didn't care much about whether raising pigeons would be successful. His diet was rich enough that having one more or less hardly made a difference.
Besides, if raising them at home didn't work, he could go to the Pigeon Cave to catch them.
