andyyy Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Last night we has a meeting and we discussed pigeons and a few members have had a few cocks go dolly winged. Has anyone else had this? What do you think causes this? Lots of things was mentioned but what are your views? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dooheed 5 Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Remember watchin something with henk de weerd and he said if when the doo is standing the tips of the end flights are above the tail but wing is hanging its a hurt wing ! but if flights tips are below tail it is more and likely Paratyphoid.
