I am assuming you meant a crow. Sometimes you just have to let nature takes its course. It is sad but that is how it works.

Love the comment. But what did you do? Make it a crutch or let nature take its course? ?

It arrived one day (with only one leg) hoovered up a load of seed from the bird table and came back pretty much everyday for the next two years. Apart from naming it peg leg, that was our only imput.

Why didn't you say you had a wood pigeon visiting you with one leg you called peg leg, i need set ups like that, i only know old jokes.

 

There are a lot of pigeons with feet missing, i'm surprised there isn't a special race for them, i suppose with no foot the rings will keep falling off.
