Hey Guys, I haven't posted in a while and have never posted in the pigeon section but I have a question. Our local Raptor Rehab lady brought a pigeon in today that someone found in their back yard that can not fly. Upon further inspection (in addition to little lice bugs on it) there is a puncture wound in the wing that needs to heal. I looked up pictures of pigeons and he seems to be a red shield old german owl pigeon. So, long story short, i've never had a pigeon and am quite lost on how to care for it while it heals. Is there any way to tell the males from the females? What do they eat? What kind of temporary housing should I set up for it in the bird cage I have it in at the moment? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance guys!!
