I took home an injured wild pigeon we found at work Thursday 3-14-07. (Long Island , NY) He smelled horrible, he could only move his head, his body felt like dead weight, gave no struggle, breathing regular, one eye closed like injured, he accepted water immediately when I rubbed his beak with...

Hi. I've been lucky enough to have a lovely pigeon visit my garden for the past two years. I feed it, talk to it, and it sits on my garden table and lets me stroke it. He has a blue ring on his leg, and is from the Irish Homing Union. Via another site, someone has been in touch with the...

Tonight my husband brought home a pij that was in the water at the marina and after reading I have decided he is ill with a virus. He twists his head and is dizzy and falls over I cannot give him rescue fluids because his head moves all over the place. I have him in the house on a low heating...

To make the story short... 3 pigeons came home with 5 of my pigeons after i tossed them approximately 10 miles north of my house. I'm thinking they are wild or possibly is owned by someone but all 3 didn't have any band on them. They all entered my loft through my own version of the Sputnik trap...

Hi all, hoping someone can help. For the past fortnight, I have had a pigeon on my garden/roof/in the general area. He/she has a band on each leg. He is not injured, and can fly perfectly well. I read online somewhere that I should feed him for a couple of days to give him strength to fly...

I recently rescued a pigeon that was being attacked by others. I called him bonk because he had a tendency to fly into the windows of the cinema. I live in Texas. I began researching his symptoms and they seem to match the paramyxovirus, but I'm extremely worried. I've read he can be pulled...

Hi All, in need of some help: Walking home today there was a pigeon hanging around on the sidewalk. She actually looked okay, but something seemed wrong. As I watched, it became apparent that she couldn't fly. She was pecking around okay, but if spooked could only fly a few feet. I noticed that...

I have been feeding the flock(about 100 pigeons) (also gulls, starlings, sparrows) for 2 years on a disused car park (formerly supermarket). The ground is now quite pigeon toilet stained. We are fine when the heavy rain comes but in dry weeks the poop stays around and sometimes is quite big and...

I feed my birds a Bay-Mor pigeon feed. They always seem to eat the "peas" first. Are these actually soy beans? I got some non-roasted organic soy beans 2day. Are these OK for pijs?

Help, I found a pigeon under a dumpster, I put it in a large box with paper towels and called lots of animal places, it is sunday and no one was answering. It is covered in black oil and stinks but seems fine besides from that. I have it in my bathroom and gave it wild bird food and water which...
