IMPORTANT REMINDER
while i was out yesterday,the local post office phoned about a problem with a pigeon it had been sent through the post(not to me) and had a injured leg. they had another local number and presumably this person dealt with it you might like to remind members that it is wrong and no doubt illegal to send livestock through the post

Someone needs to post the correct answer about sending birds thru the Postal system in the UK.. we can send birds thru the USA postal system
It is a few excepting----Weather/temps in route?????

skytx this is plain to anyone that it is the correct answer in the UK

two things spring to mind here for me, firstly i never remember pigeons being permitted to be sent through the post, strays were returned using the rail service.....

secondly what idiot in the post office took the parcel off the sender .....?


also having an injured leg is nothing to do with sending a pigeon through the post, it shouldnt have been allowed to be sent either with an injured leg or not injured, strange story...........

Thanks Rainbow
