treatment

Hello to whomever lays eyes on this sincere request for help, I found tonight, in our garden, a mature pigeon laying as if crouched and unable to fly away. It appears to have broken its wing, and seeing as cats frequently roam our neighborhood and garden during the night, I took it in. I found...

I really need your help now. I am in venezuela, meaning that there is not much help here. Not at all, actually. I took my pet pigeon who is a 2yr old female today and he says that she could have Marek or Newcastle disease from the other pigeon I rescued. I am not entirely sure of that diagnosis...

Hi everyone! I was hoping for some help/advice on a situation with my two pigeons. We have just moved house and for the past week my pigeons have had their environment change a lot, culminating in them getting moved into a new outdoor aviary (they were previously kept in a cage indoors). I...

Hello everyone, This is my first post after joining and spending most of yesterday researching green poops, Psittacosis, and Coccidia. Thanks to that research I was able to hold off having my little feral rescue PTS and today his poops are normal, BUT the little guy is now spinning in circles...

Hello, my pigeons are suffering from coccidossis outbreak. Someone suggested to give mercurius cor 200. Does anyone know the dose. I have given amprolium to the chicks and parents.

Hi, I found this pigeon sitting motionless yesterday. He/She would not move for any reason, drink abundantly when I put a little lid with water right underneath his beak but not otherwise. Post 24 hours, he's a bit more mobile, occasionally grooms etc. I'm not quite sure if he's eaten...

Hey, I'm new at this pigeon keeping thing. I'm seeking for solutions on how to treat my baby pigeon's chicken pox. Please help. THANK YOU! :confused:

We took in a rescue feral pigeon about a month ago. Unable to fly so can't be released (we have an aviary with a couple of other non flyers). The bird came to us a little underweight but otherwise seemed well, poos were normal at this stage. We put her in with another non-flyer we have, kept...

My wife and I have four rescues whom live with us but fly free during the day when we leave the window open. Another two (a couple) have been coming here for breakfast for a few years. A few days ago the boy was showing signs of sickness and from the symptoms we became fairly confident that...

Hello everyone. I have a new rescue, I am pretty sure she is still a baby, because her beak looks quite different from my other rescue. Please see her pic. The reason I am asking for help is that she defecated today on my floor, and had some poop stuck in her feathers. I went to wash it out...

Hello! My female ringneck dove hasn't been acting like herself lately. She has been immobile, loosing weight, and very fluffed up. I didn't think about it too much since it is winter and I live in Oregon, but I decided to bring her inside and do a check up. When I opened her mouth, I saw...

Hello all, I recently diagnosed a bird with Cocci and roundworms, and am now wondering what to do with rest of the birds in the coop. The bird originally diagnosed is quarantined and seperate from the coop (and on medication), but I would like some advice on how to treat the rest of my birds. If...

Hi, I came across a crow with what looked like an injured wing and no ability to fly. The crow was trying to cross the street but had to run back when cars came. When I approached (very carefully, from the direction of the street) the crow ran away from me. We ran down a block until the crow...

Dear Forum members, I am located in Mumbai, India and have just found an adult pigeon that seems to be in poor health and also has a broken/twisted lower leg. I could simply pick it up and now I have it home. He/she is sitting in a cardboard box, I have put on a light bulb to keep it warm...

The injured feral pigeon I took in looks healthy other than his wing. My Mom is worried that keeping him in the house may be a bad idea because either we or the dog could catch something from him. Is there any chance of that? I did buy some lice spray (just in case) to treat him with. Is there...

I've read that Metronidazolum is really good, but I don't have the extra dollars to spare currently because I've spent everything on school, but I found these Aviotrich tablets on Foy's... http://www.foyspigeonsupplies.com/medications/canker-products/2513-aviotrich-tablets Any good? Or does...

Hello, I am new to pigeons or birds of any kind. Following is a procedure I'm planning to use when introducing new pigeons to the loft. I'm looking to get as much feedback as possible from experienced users. What I would like to do as a matter of routine when introducing new birds to the...
