Hi
Not sure where to put it, so here I go:
We had 3 days ago a 'thing' caught in the chimney. Initial examination revealed nothing close enough for me to grab and rescue. Once in a while could hear wings flutter. This morning we couldn't stand it any longer (the suffering of what was clearly an animal) undid the fireplace and pulled out a fairly dirty and exhausted but otherwise unharmed pigeon (fairly big too, like a small chicken).
The Mrs is now worried that may not survive the night outside in our garden (despite surviving 3 days in the chimney). Any ideas? We tried to give it water and some food (water in a low bowl and crumbs), but so far no luck.
Should I attempt to put it in a crate and feed it until it is strong enough or ...?
