thanks, I've given him some dry cat food, and he's pecking at it=D. As for his keel, I can't really tell. It seems to be pretty round and smooth.

I've checked out the link. I put some newspapers/towels in the cage, but the pigeon is only willing to stand in the part of the cage that has no towel/ newspaper. =( ...

thanks everyone, I've talked to feralpigeon. Feralpigeon is picking the pigeon up tomorrow. Look's like everything will work out afterall!

[feralpigeon]

Yes, we have spoken, and pearlkitty has been kind enough to let this pijie
'bunk' over night. I will pick up in the morning and continue the care that
pearlkitty and family have begun. Will keep folks posted on the progress of the
new rescue. Thanks again pearlkitty for caring about the little fellow's condition and well-being.

Just saw this post, glad you're able to help out, FP. I had a similar situation with a pij from SF who looked just like that and after many, many (many) dish soap baths, came out a light gray! So happy bathing, and thanks for helping to both FP and this lucky pigeon's savior. (And to everyone else for their great advice!)
