Could you check out my replies to ab2's answer? It contains most of my current concerns (which aren't its injury anymore, it seems to be getting used to the injury and all) about the bird, for example how can I help it learn to fly and how I can make sure it learns the things it needs to learn. | |

Many birds do fine with a certain level of injury. He sounds confused but not necessarily a lost cause. @ab2's article offers good information. It's good to know that crows won't reject a baby that's been touched by a human. Whatever happens know that you did your best. If he happens to perish, at least he had someone to love and make his life as easy as possible. If he's able to live, that would be awesome! Would you please update your question as you go along? We'd like to know what happens to this little guy! | |

| May 30, 2018 at 17:22 | comment | added | ab2 | How do you feel about having a pet crow? Crows are very intelligent, and this guy may decide he has a good thing going with you. This is just speculation on my part, however. | |

| May 30, 2018 at 17:10 | comment | added | Robo | I live in Serbia, absolutely nobody is willing to help just a random crow, and vets are not going to do anything to help the crow for free. My financial situation absolutely does not permit spending huge amounts of money on a vet for a wild animal, as much as I wish I could. Also, a professional mentioned that the crow will be fine with a disfigured leg (it's already stopped bleeding and seems to have mostly healed), since they mostly use wings. It can walk fine, it just walks with a limp, and it's already getting used to balancing on top of things (only 2 days after the injury!). | |
