Im wondering if i can trouble you for abit of advice. Recently my Wife and I rescued 2 young Jackdaws who had fallen from the nest we got them in quick (cats are a real issue in our area) and began a feeding regiment for them and thankfully they survived and have taken to us well and its safe to say they have imprinted onto us (they cry for us and want to sleep being cradled 1 refuses to eat unless hes hand fed) the original goal was to release them when they came to age and were healthy however we had 1 of the birds start to go off his food and become not himself, So we consulted our local vet as he is an avian specialist turns out they had a bacterial infection so we were given a course to give them after going through the motions with the Vet he told us 1 of the bids (we call him bobbin) had a Vitamin A deficency as well as afew other minor problems, it was suggested to us that he wouldn't make it in the wild we also have a birds of prey breeder who is a friend who reiterated what the vet said however Iv had several people (not trained with birds) tell me i should let him go anyway and let him take his chances which to me sounds cruel- sending a living creature out that we've been told wont make it without help and support, im hoping your opinion would line up with mine that it would be best for him to be looked after and cared for, im prepared to put in the work and have done alot of research into correct care and diet and i give them vitamin enriched food, they currently have a LARGE cage as a home with lots of toys (my wife loves them) and have ordered a big outdoor aviary for them so they can safely be outside in a safe environment. Am i correct in what im doing? As it would break our hearts to even think of setting a bird loose that simply wouldnt survive. Thankyou for taking the time to answer this I really appreciate it.
