Hello. Two wild baby pigeons (big, maybe a month old?) have been nesting inside a storage box on my deck and are out and walking around on the large deck. But both have hard poop balls on their feet. Do I really need to try and catch these wild birds and remove the poop? Or will it come off by...

I've noticed my newest dove, Ivy, stamp her feet alternatively and quickly... sometimes when she was nervous, but other times she was just sitting there, and started doing it. I thought it was just her trying to get a grip for a while, but she's done it when she's on a flat surface or comfy...

Have a 6 week old pigeon that developed yellowish lumps on 2 toes on the same foot. Has been like that for the last 2 weeks, seems to be getting better. My question: if a bird gets pox thru a mosquito bite, does the lumps only appear on the part of the body that was bitten, or will it appear...

Hi everyone! I went to put my dove in his cage yesterday and I noticed his feet were cold. Not COLD, actually they were pretty much close to room temperature. I thought it was because maybe body temp gets lower at night. Today I took him out, and his feet were still cold. He eats, moves, and...
