Found baby pigeon in Chicago Loop

[birdlady26]

That's wonderful news, Grimaldy- I can't tell you how much I, and the little baby you saved, appreciate it! Blessings to you for helping Please keep me posted on the little one's progress. Do you think you'll keep him, or release him once he's a little more developed and doing better?

Thanks again, from the bottom of my heart

Great work Birdlady and Grimaldy. I had been following the post and had the worst images in my mind of this little one all alone and starving.

Bless you Grimaldy!!!! Please keep us posted of the little one's progress.

He is a young fledged squab, very weak, hiding in a corner. There is a very competitive flock there and I have little doubt malnutrition is the problem. I gave him 20 cc of KayTee and applesauce and some metabolites; we will see how he makes the next 24 hours. I suspect he will be just fine; when I went to put water in his cage he gave me a wing slap.

Hooray!!!! You are the man Grimaldy!!!! I'm so glad you found him before it was too late!

On behalf of the little bird, we all thank you birdlady. He crawled off in that corner of the I beam to die and that is what would have happened if you had not decided to get involved and help him.

He is a wild bird and he belongs with other pigeons. When his health issues are resolved and if you wish, I will bring him to you and you can release him.
