I think that I did something stupid. I finished a new kit box, went and bought a new water and food tray. I rinsed these items, but did not wash them. I now have a pigeon with a droopy wing, it will not fly off the floor. I have separated it. I fear it may be paratyphoid. Hopefully get some antibiotics tomorrow. Anyone have any luck with birds once have had this condition, or is it going to be a cull. it is a young bird, my last hatches, hatched about Oct 1. It is in a new kit box and could be injured?
Anyone have any luck with birds once have had this condition, or is it going to be a cull? Besides a Vet anyway to be sure it is Paratyphoid? Thanks for the help

Don't be hasty..young birds trying to fly in loft or kit box and injure muscles..any lumps on the joint? Yep, isolate. I doubt the new kit box or feeders/waters had anything to do with it.

It is Isolated, the joints did not feel like they were swollen. None of the other birds have showed any signs yet. I am hoping for an injury over the infection. But will medicate to be sure. Ihope he is Okay
