White dove


My white dove is llimping , what can be the cause of this?


Answer:

Hi Maryellen,

It sounds like she injured herself somehow. If she is not using the leg at all, you need to take her to a avian vet ASAP. If she is using it some but limping, you can try watching her for a few days but if she does not get better, a vet visit is in order.

Take care,

Brenda
