Fledging pigeon we’ve taken had flies all over it

We found it unable to fly, able to walk, no visible scars, visibly a fledgling with yellow bits just grown out, but flies were allll over it so we’ve taken it, put it in a box with a towel, water, some sunflower seeds and covered it with blankets

My plan is to release it back near where we found tomorrow in hopes it’s parents are still there

Sorry for the bad photos

Any advice is welcome I know there’s not much we can do but giving her a rest and water is good, she’s already falling/ fallen asleep we live very close to where she was found (she wasn’t found in trees but on a pathway sitting there covered in flies) no visible scabbing

My nephew (ADULT) Overfed my tank whilst I was asleep

I didn’t tell him to fucking touch them
She seems lethargic she’s just still (still alive) has little weird food particles around her

My gold fish are fine

Worst thing is I am fully booked to go out tonight so I think I need to put her in a hospital tank, I have a small one, I don’t know what to do someone please help I don’t want my animal to die I’ve had her for 2 years

Update: done about a 45-50% water change, she’s moved a bit but is still not in the best shape. I will give her an air bath before I have to leave.

EVERYONE GREAT NEWS SHES ALIVE WELL AND MOVING THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I’ve had her for nearly 2 years and didn’t want to lose her!

For anyone else struggling I changed half the water and gave her an air bath, she then moved back into the water happily and is now sliding around!

Apple snail has laid eggs again, what do I do with them

There’s a lot more this time, she doesn’t have any snail tank mates she in fact hasn’t seen one since she was born back in 2024 September. Do I just crush them? Some bits fell in the water so I’m hoping my fish will eat them

Could I sell the eggs to an aquarium shop?

Edit: I’m just going to crush them again
