Hi all.
Im Rachael. I live in Jacksonville Florida.
I came to these forums in search of good information (which I am finding).
Im a veterinary technician that works at a hospital that does exotic animals and takes in wildlife.
Ive helped raise numerous (and I mean numerous) baby doves, and we get the occasional racing pigeon through. Most are relocated back to their owners, or theyre too badly injured
We have one now with a healed broken wing, but he cannot fly anymore. The owner said the bird was no good to him now and to dispose of it however we wanted.
However, Ive come to like this bird a lot. He has a great personality and is perfectly healthy other than his inability to fly.
Im trying to convince the husband now to let me adopt him. Otherwise he gets euthanized =(
Im trying to gather what kind of housing I would need for a single pigeon that cannot fly. A lot of good suggestions on this site.
Thats about it. I just wanted to come on and introduce myself.
