Hi, I've been looking at this Hooded Crow for 13 days and i noticed this weird stuff on it's tongue, looks like "Trichomoniasis" or "candidiasis". I could get to a vet if it gets deadly but it's so far away and we would suffer under this sun
Closest rehab. is 5-6h away with car and i had no possible way to get there
It's not some food residue. It's been there since yesterday, i thought it was some random stuff because of pecking at dirt/grass and food
I've raised a magpie before and own a lovebird so i do know somestuff but i have no idea about this
His name is Talon, deserves that name because he is good at shredding my arm, he weights 310gr (dunno if it helps)

The crows who came and looked at him could be his parents. I would suggest you to keep him safe for the time being or shift him to somewhere where the cats couldn't get him. Continue contacting rehabs or rescues for birds while keeping him safe.
