Hi everyone... My name is Rick from Indio, Ca, a member from Coachella Valley Rollers. I have been to a few shows/benefits and looking forward to attending many more. My question to you all, my fellow bird friends is: I have a roller that has obtained a cough, sounds like a duck...any suggestions, info or advice is appreciated. -Rick

This is just a guess, but I would say it has a respitory problem! I, personally, would start him on tetracycline! I would also quarantine it in case it is something contageous! I am no doctor, this is just what I would do personally!
By the way, welcome to the site!

Welcome :)
I heard this saying: If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it must be a duck.
Are you sure it isn't a duck :)
I had rollers that have been on a long lock down start acting like they were drunk after a short flight but to cough like a duck... not yet. Must be a cold. I know dogs and cats are capable of getting a cold. Why not our pigeons. I wouldn't worry too much about a cough. I'd be worry more about how it is doing in the air.
Good luck, Thor
---------- It's all about the friends we make :)
