Hey! So I just found a dove and it had mites on it. Besides the mites she looks clean and I tried taking her to the vet but her appointment is not until a month from now. I dk if she is wild but I just went up to her and she let me pick her up. Is there anything you recommend I could do in the meantime? Ps. I tried looking for owner. She doesn’t know how to fend for herself. My dog almost got to her.
If not there is a product you can purchase online or dynamite spray that works pretty well . If she has mites that should remove it . Best of luck and thank you for rescuing the dove 💪💪
Recently i found a fledgeling coveted in mites that was missing feathers around its neck, chest and under its wings. The only reason i took it in was cos it was jet black. Anyone have tips with the cleaning process? (In currently quarantining it fron my quails and pigeons in a cat carrier.)
I would recommend if you can giving it a bath with dawn dish soap. To clean the feathers Then letting it dry is important . You can towel dry it with a towel . Most importantly make sure it eats and drinks water . You can feed it rice or oatmeal if you don’t have any other seeds . Home depot has small bags of seeds you can purchase. I’m wondering why it was missing feathers . It may have been attacked by a hawk or cat .
@@harryhoudini8626 Ive gave it a bath in warm water which got rid off alot of blood suckers, however it was pooping clear liquid without any solid matter but i fed tue skinny guy 40 sweet corn kernels and he started pooping again so i dont think theres any intestinal worms or blockage. However I recently bathed it again in a mix of salt, ginger and turmeric powder and he seems to be fine now. Ill look into your recommendations and use them if needed. Thanks for the help.
