I found a bird with a broken wing

cold_blooded Sep 23, 2003 09:30 PM

HI! I found a beautiful crow with a broken wing. Other then that, he is very healthy and eats a cup of food a day. I feed him semi'cooked ground beef, alpo canned dog food, skimmed milk powder, grated soy cheese, hard boilded eggs, wheat germ, corn, peas, beans, crickets, vitamin C, calcium powder, bread crums, and rice all blended together. He drinks a lot as well. I have read on various sites that if you tape the wing in a natural posistion instead of hanging down, it should heal. DO you you think so? I cant take him to the vet, because they put pests to sleep, and I think he was raised by humans, because he is quite tame and knows the up command. What should I do? Its illegal to have him, but I belong to a animal rights group and we do education...should i get a lisence and use him for education if the wing heals wrong? WHat should I do for his wing? HELP

I would attempt to contact your local SPCA and ask them for a list of animal rehabbers in your area. These people are qualified to care for and release wild animals. They will also be the best judges of weather or not this animal is too tame to be released....
