I have a pigeon that ruffles her feathers and always acts like shes cold. AND her butt area is like almost always wet, and her poo is pretty green and slimy. I've seperated her from other birds but this is still going on. When I pick her up she seems fine, but I honestly don't know.

That would make sense, she does sneeze...How do I fix it? Or can I?

Goto fleet farm buy aeromycin or terramycin one teaspoon for a gallon for 5 days.

How much would you say its going to cost? I also put some Apple Cider Vinager in her water. I know that its only helping with pH levels but ok, well that helps.

Aeromycin or Terramycin are antibiotics and should be less than $10 each. Very useful, but avoid overdosing the bird.

Contacted Dennis Kuhn who was the breeder of my Russian Tumbler Hen that has this, and he said is was coccidiosis, and told me to buy 1% iodine to harden the droppings and then Corid. I bought them both, so wish me luck.

Make sure she isn't exposed to drafts, rain, etc. She needs good TLC and she should make a full recovery.
