I wish I was near, I'd have it in a heartbeat! I'm trying to breed some ash into my birds and s/he really is a good looker! I don't know if @cavemanrich may know of somewhere that way out. I think he's near illinios. Is that near Chicago?

We're about a 45 minute drive from Chi-town. We're closer to Chicago then South Bend. East of Gary

I found a local wildlife rescue in Porter County. Not sure if they would take a racing pigeon though.

Is this place any good? Seems they do wildlife as well. https://humaneindiana.org/

Yea! Think they'll take her? Just as a back up plan.

I have no idea! It's worth a call.

Hey, @Ninjasquirrel I am currently visiting in Whiting like 16 miles northwest of Gary, and I could take in the pigeon if you could meet there today or tomorrow. I have one and have all the resources to care for it. Is her wing badly injured in a way that emergency care is needed or do you think it will set on its own?

Difficult to find a rehabber that will take disabled pigeons and not put them down (they're not wildlife and there's generally not enough resources for rehabbers to care for them), but she could lead a reasonably happy life as a pet bird even with a disability.

It's very likely it will be killed if the owner takes it back.

If you guys could meet up that would be perfect! You do give the best care to your birds, especially olive!

I hope you can meet up!

Not sure how badly it is injured. The bone is not poking through the skin but I can definately feel a break. I'll mention this to my SO when he gets home and see what he wants to do.

@Serin would be a Perfectadopter for this bird.
