Thanks I think I have a tube of triple antibiotic already, and I found some flush so I'll try that and if she improves I may get some terramycin later. We got her while we were out of town on a day trip so taking her back at this point is more trouble than its worth, especially since they were...
Hi guys so two days ago we picked up some chicks to add to our silkies, and as it was dark we didn't realize till we got home that one showed signs of an eye issue, it is only one eye and shows no signs of spreading. I work all day and in that time soft soaks have not prevented it worsening. Now...
Haha thank you! She's really quite plain compared to some of the birds from our city flock, 99% positive there been new York flights bred in at some point and maybe some other breeds cause we have quite the pattern combo, from pure black to white wing tips to grizzled and splashes! She makes up...
Ok so on another thread I noted and updates on a pigeon I rescued at around 15 days old and named Flapjack...well now that she can free fly and bath I decided I needed to get her a buddy since I'll 've going back to school soon and didn't want her lonely. She hates the new bird -_- I noted her...

First bath and beginning to wean! Go took a "bath for the first time today in a tiny dog bowl and is finally has begun to actually taste test what I bring and not just peck it!
Yeah! Went and met up with him this afternoon to see the birds and such! Happy to give me not only a companion but a few breeding pairs once the loft/aviary is set up, :D FJ is more food focused right now any ways
Also I have a 4×2 hutch(used to breed rats) that I plan on using as his starter cage outdoors as he feathers out and builds muscle. Anyone know how long till I can leave him out on his own? I assume till he's completely feathered but obviously ferals live outside in the same weather so idk!
