The other day my boyfriend and I found a pigeon in our little town that we believe to be domesticated. It's white with brown markings, an orange beak, and red-ish legs. It's not banded. When we saw it outside it was walking into store fronts and standing still in the middle of pathways which...

Hi! My pigeon seems to be doing well. I took him to the vet on Wednesday and he was treated for lice (seems to be good). The vet took a stool sample and just called me to say that he wants to de-worm him. I've read some posts on here that you shouldn't de-worm a pigeon below four months of age...

Hello. New to this forum, but thought maybe someone could help. We noticed a baby piegeon in our back garden around 8am, but just assumed it was resting as it still has it's baby feathers. It went 11am and the piegeon would not move or fly away. We have secured him and left him with food and...

I received a call from an Avian Vet hospital where I do some volunteer work. She asked me to take on the home care of a young pigeon that has just started to eat seed on it's own. She mentioned that it has a splayed leg and the long-term plan is I give it home care for a couple more weeks...

I got a call from someone down the street that they found a crow that looked like its wing was broken. I grabbed a towel, ran down, cornered it, and wrapped it up. When I got home I gave him a warm water bath to clean everything since there was a lot of blood and after I took him out of the...

Hello all! My name is Olivia and I am new here — I just adopted a lovely pij named April, and I am writing to ask about pigeon health insurance. Does anyone have health-insurance for their pet pigeon(s), and if so, is there a particular provider you would recommend? Thanks very much! Olivia...

Hello, all! My boyfriend recently moved here from out-of-state and brought his pet pigeon with him. The plan has been to take her down to Florida to live with his dad. However, the way things are lining up, it looks like his dad will be out-of-state for a week or two shortly after she...

Hello, My husband and I, as well as our two tame, disabled pigeons, Elmo and Georgie, are moving to the Newcastle upon Tyne (UK) area and I was wondering if there are any pigeon-friendly vets and/or rescue centres in the area? It would be good to know of the best vets to go to if we ever need...

I have posted this information before, but just to summarize, here it is again. I first got this pigeon, Peach, last November while looking for another bird that flew away due to a horrible error on my part. The person who got her thought she might be mine, since she was banded. The person who...
