head

Yesterday we found a pigeon on the road which had just been hit by a car. It had blood coming from its eye and beak and we took it home with us, expecting it to die within the hour. However, it seemed to recover very well. It can see from both eyes and is alert. It ate some peas overnight and...

Hi, Our bird is old, I know, but he seems to be losing feathers along his head and towards his eye. He's getting a bit bald. Everything else seems ok. Any ideas? He's always been inside with us and he's the only one we have. I was thinking of getting the mite medicine, but does anyone else...

Hello everyone, On my way home this evening I discovered a pigeon in the bus station that looked very poorly. It was puffed up and didn't move at all when I came near it. It looked as if it's eyes were very swollen. I decided to pick it up and bring it home with me to try and get a better look...

hello, i've always wondered about this because it happened to a pigeon i had a while ago. He one day got sick and his head was fully bent back, i dont remember if he could eat or not, sometimes his head would be abit normal and after it would be bent back again. i THINK he shook his head at...

today i saw my baby bird with his neck huddled in the nest bowl. As i looked it he was breathing heavily and had is neck twisted, but it was stiff and not wobbly, i was thinking the other pigeons may have stepped on him or he is sick. I gave it some water cause i assumed it was dehydrated but it...

First off, I apologise for my many posts, but this is happening quickly, and rather strangely. I have a mated pair of diamond doves, and they've mated sveral times. Well, earlier I brought them to the vet, droppings looking like the normal round pellets that any diamond dove would have. But...

Today, I have noticed that my three year old female pigeon (rescued as a squab) is doing a really strange thing with her head: every second or so, her head drops forward and then returns to the usual position. This is NOT the normal pigeon head bob. It's something I've never seen before. She...

Hello, I have just registered as I need you experts to advise....PLEASE READ Ok, whilst walking our dog last night, we came across a White Dove (possibly a Fantail), it didn't make an effort to escape when our dog gave it a sniff, we looked a little closer and it walked off, my chap 'shoo'd' it...
