Couldn't think of a better title. I found a pigeon with a broken leg a month ago, and he/she's been with me ever since. The leg seems to have healed, after I found it I took it to a vet who put the leg in a cast (which should be removed soon if all has gone well). I was wondering when would be a good time to release him/her? I don't even know how long it takes for a pigeon to get its adult feathers, it still has brown eyes and no white at the base of the beak yet. Should I release it among the wild pigeons soon before it has its adult plumage, or should I wait another couple of months until it's a bit more adult?
Thanks in advance.
