r/pigeon

It started as a doodle!

A quick recap. My friend found this pigeon after being hit by the car. Its head completely bald smooth from the accident and its eye crushed. We all thought it would definitely be blind and its survival rate would be very low. That’s why many people also suggested euthanizing it We tried searching for different vets, but they said that they wouldn’t accept it and we called a rehabber and and after sending some pictures and consulting with them they said that they would also euthanize it.
Something told me that the little guy definitely had a chance to survive and I would be willing to give it the chance. After two days of being with my friend, I brought him to my home since they could no longer care for it and with the help of some previous experience and Reddit friends this guy is all better and well!
I just wanted to update you guys. Those who sent so many nice messages and prayers thank you so
You can see the previous post and here he is now! We are so grateful to have this opportunity to care for this little guy.

Basically theres this pigeon in my local flock that is SUPER friendly and mild mannered, kinda wobbly on his feet and has a bit of difficulty eating the peanuts i feed the rest of the flock unless i crush them up. Also his upper body/neck looks a little crooked. Im basically wondering if you think hes like… clinically stupid. Like flew into a window and got brain damage or something. Thanks 🙏

Edit: want to add that ive been feeding these guys since July and hes kind of always been like this. He also started out smaller and has grown a bit, so i think he was born this year. If that affects anything.

It's 40x50cm big.

what do you all think?

We recently had a rehabilitating pigeon we got from the people that found it on the road, he wasn't very responsive and likely got dazed by a car. Luckly injuries weren't significant and he fully recovered in few days and was ready to go back. Here is a video of us releasing him on a place where he was found. Someone obviously missed him c:

One week on and the feathers are coming through very nicely!
