Unwell feral pigeon quarantine
Posted: Wed Oct 11, 2023 6:48 am
I just rescued my third feral pigeon just picked the poor thing out of the gutter all puffed up, wobbly and breast bone sticking out.
Head said leave it as I can’t risk infecting my show birds but heart said it’s a life so worth saving.
It’s in isolation and medicated, feeding and drinking and faeces look normal now. Lethargic
Slight head shaking so I suspect maybe a nervous issue which I understand is likely not recoverable.
Is this bird likely to continue to be a threat to my birds?
Thanks everyone in anticipation.
