Hey all...
Well...this tale started w/ my thread in this section entitled "Need suggestions on how to catch"....

I don't want to sound irresponsible here... However, my little pigeon, Muffin, is not yet fully recovered. After her 5 days on an antibiotic (Tetraycycline) given by my vet, (I originally thought she was going to give me Baytril, but had none, most surprisingly), Muffin is better, but not...
Can you medicate your birds while they are on eggs and have babies? I have a yb who seems to be going light and he is the only bird but I would like to treat the whole flock. I just wormed him thinking maybe that was the problem.
It is a Trimethorprim/Sulfa drug.
Greetings, can anyone answer this ? for me? What is the best way to hand feed two week old piggies? They are not orphans, their parents stopped feeding them, and have "other" things on their minds. ( I think they are working on making MORE! :eek: ) This morning I tried the "spoon method"...
I've been reading in a few posts about probiotics.. Are they used like if you were giving them vitamins, Garlic in water or Apple Cider Vinegar or are they used when the bird is sick?
Thanks just wondering... LOL I take probiotics daily along with my daily vitamins. :D
Greetings everyone!Hope you are all well. It’s been a while since I last posted, have been busy. Sadly Xena died a few days after I took her to the sanctuary but Peggy was doing great all week, ‘till today. Fort the past 3 days her poops have been runny but the colour was normal dark brownish...
Jedds has a 5 in 1 combo by Vita King...for canker, cocci., worms, probiotics+ has anyone used this who can give me a thumbs up or thumbs down? Sure would make the preventative treatment for 32 pijis easier on me!
I went in to check on my supposedly PMV pigeon this morning and his face was wet. When I picked him up I noticed that liquid was coming out of his nose/mouth. It smells sour, and when I offered him some water, I noticed that when his beak went in to get some, the liquid that came off his beak...
One of my relatively new birds has droppings that are mostly comprised of water but with a little solid material. This has been going on for a week or so. Since I had found a worm in another bird's droppings, I wormed the whole flock this weekend and thought that would take care of the watery...
Jesse sleeps on top of the china cabinet, so I line his areas with white paper towels.
Many of his poops, develop a bright green liquid stain around them.
I am starting to worry & was wondering if any of you have ever noticed this with your pigeons? Thanks.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this group. A nice woman referred me to your site.
I found a pigeon almost 2 weeks ago. He was soaked from the rain, emaciated and had an injured foot/leg. I brought him home, blow dryed him, and syringe fed him warm pedialyte. By the end of the day he was eating food. I...
About 5 days ago, i found a baby dove in my backyard at the base of the date palm that is home to a flock of feral doves.
Based on the day-by-day photos of racing pigeon babies here, I have concluded that she is about 17 days old now.
