I found a feral pigeon in the middle of the road earlier today! He wouldn’t move when I was driving up. Looked like he had been out for a bit as there was dried blood on the road and the blood on his wing was mostly dry. He was shaking when I first found him but has calmed down and is alert now...

This feral baby was found on the 2nd day of May; sitting on the ground, starved, severely underweight (155 g) and malnourished. She has several symptoms of PMV (trembling head, twisted neck, stargazing, walking backwards). Unable to eat and drink on her own. She is on medication (Amoxycillin...

Hi everyone, This is Magoo: She crashed into my glass balcony door about a month & a half ago. From what I can tell, she’s completely blind, or very close to it... she has keratitis - a yellowish plaque on the surface of her eyes - which has receded in one eye down to a small fleck - plus...

Hi all, I don't know much about pigeons and just signed up here to try to find help for a pigeon. I work in a hotel in the city centre of Dublin and when I arrived at work at 2pm by co-worker told me that a young pigeon had been outside the front door all day. It looks old enough to fly but...

The bird came to me, as in came into my apartment and wouldn't leave. (I was taking care of another pigeon at the time so there are a few pigeons that come around now, who know I am a safe human). Anyway, it was vomiting (lime green substance and seeds) and had very bad diarrhea (dark green...

Hello! Today I took in a pigeon from a vet clinic that was due to be euthanised today because they couldn't find a carer, so I stepped in and brought her home. She's very underweight, and I suspect she has some kind of fracture to her wing as she holds it up and a little bit out, it looks quite...

So I found a pigeon yesterday (I live in a big city in Europe). I am a very experienced (ex) parrot owner so some things are similar but I have zero experience with pigeons. I did a lot of research but need guidance. I'm not sure if she was in shock when I found her but she's eating well...

Hi there, I started feeding a young pigeon from my apt window. It was small and it was walking weirdly. The bigger pigeons that came with it were pecking it as it was squeaking. I am not allowed to do this and I have to stop. I do not own the building. It comes in the morning with the same...

Hi, me again... A couple of days before I set Butterfly free, I spotted this little guy, who’s got a pretty large lump on his face/lower jaw that doesn’t look like the usual pox I’ve seen birds with... I grabbed him to take a better look at it, & I’ve still got him inside, with ample seed &...

Hi all, I've seen a feral within our local flock who just didn't seem 'right'- slow to fly off, and running rather than flying. He also would fly into walls and seemed a bit shaky with direction. I managed to catch him by hand one morning however when checking him over decided it didn't warrant...

I have a pet cocketiel but don't know much about pigeons. This pigeon is a regular that visits our garden everyday but yesterday he either sunbathed on the ground or walked around for the entire day. Eventually he started trying to fly but could only get up about half a meter before coming back...

Hi everyone! Remember my Butterfly bird, from this post? Well, she's back... although technically she didn't really go far. I set her free a couple of weeks ago, after dosing her up for a week or so with the vitamin supplement I ordered (Vetafarm Multivet with moulting aid) - she was so...

Hi Everyone! My name is Joey - I'm British and live in Porcia, Northern Italy. Last week I found a fledgling pigeon really suffering with Pox and had been attacked by what I suspect was the neighborhood cats - she found shelter under my veranda and didn't move when I approached. On closer...

Hello, all. I picked up a wood pigeon with a dragging wing a couple of weeks ago. She's recovering and is slowly getting movement back in her wing. The vet advised I should put her in a larger enclosure, so I've made a makeshift aviary in a trailer for the time being. It's large enough that...

Hi everyone, My friend Grump is a juvenile pigeon who has been hanging out on my balcony heaps since he fledged. He commonly sits on the table & harasses me for seed, growling at me, biting, & slapping (as shown here: https://imgur.com/gallery/hrERYtd) when I’m too slow to give some seeds to...

When reading in the park with my dog I noticed a large flock of pigeons. Upon closer inspection I noticed a bunch of them tragically had string/wire/hair/etc. wrapped around their feet, greatly impacting their mobility. A quick google search and I found out that helping pigeons with stringfoot...

Background We live at Naihati, 38 kms from Kolkata, India. For the last few years our balcony on the second floor has been serving as the “maternity ward” for feral pigeons and doves. They lay eggs and rear their babies here. We regularly clean their nests and sometimes bring the babies indoors...

Hi every year I get sick pigeons in my garden with ruffled feathers and struggling to eat I put them in a cage in my shed with water and seed but they never survive they all have the same problem and it’s a real shame is there anything I can put in the water or the seed to help them I’ve got...

We have wild pigeons that come visit us every day. We give them a few seeds from time to time. In the video, I am asking about the one at the bottom. As far as I know it's a male, he has been coming for a couple of years, the other is a female. It seems they are together since this summer /...

Hi, Firstly - thanks for taking the time to read this post, from reading the forum I understand you must recieve a few of these. Having spent a lot of time in the garden since lockdown here in the UK, I have been feeding all the wild birds, and a few pigeons. I am quite fond of some of the...
