i hate broken legs get them every year, its funny though ive only every had one that turned out to be a good pigeon, the rest fell to the way side, i notice in flight birds whos legs have been broken after periods of time struggle to keep there legs up while flying, to me which i find is a weakness, however in these cases i rest them in a box, with a nest bowl inside, i put a good layer of saw dust, and place the bird in the bowl,and from this bowl everything is accessible water and food, without it having to get out. I also feed it high protein at this time to make the healing process quicker, but after about 8 days you will see it trying to put pressure on the legs for short periods of time!
