Hi, my husband found a pigeon chicken on the floor in our garden.
I've popped it on a hot water bottle but have nothing to feed it on...
Is there anything I can make up for it to eat?
No idea if it's been injured, I've tried not to touch it. It's moving slightly but eyes seem shut all the time.
Is there anywhere that will take it? I live in East Lancs.
Thanks,
Rosie
Hi Rosie,
Please make sure you continue to keep it warm (maybe make a small 'nest' from a small cloth or similar and place that on the hot water bottle). Take a look at this website and see if there is a pigeon friendly rescue near you.

Do you have a picture if it to try to gauge how old it is? Here is another site to try ...
