i had a youngster that i had been flying for maybe a month and was starting to roll but one day it didnt come back till like 4 or 5 days.. he was weak and skinny and when i tried flying it after it rolled down like ten feet in the air.. so i kept inside and anytime it would fly it would roll down even to go inside the kitbox.. right now i have it alone and feeding it as much as it wants but still seems skinny its been a week.. what should i do fatten him up and try him again or cull him??

If I had a bird go missing for 5 days I would cull it without even thinking about it. If I lose a bird and a local racer man gets it in and I go round to get it I always like to see the state of the shed. You dont have any idea were he has been? He may have been with the wild ferral pigeons and got some kind of bug. O some local who dont keep is birds like he should may have got him in and tried to break him off but he found his way back home? DO NOT RISK IT. So mate my advice would be kill it and if you have had it near any of your birds keep a good eye on them . Good look yours in roll harrison uk hull.

May be it needs to be wormed and get some vitamines. If it was gone for 4 or 5 days it probably did not eat well.

Just imagine not eating yourself for 4 or 5 days. You will feel weak and probably can't think straight. Feed the bird and let it recover. Then you can decided whether it is a cull or not. What I am saying is that it is too early to tell whether the bird is good or not.
