Ok guys
>found a bird by the road
>it's some kind of small lagoon seagull
>it has a wing that looks messed up like not completely bad but it cant fly or put in in it's place so it's hanging all the time
>apart from that it's completely healthy and has no trouble running or eating
Will it fly again?
If so how do I proceed in fixing its wing?
By the way I had one of those birds once with the same problem and it didn't fly once it was cured, I want to make it right this time.
Do I have to put it between two little planks so it heals in straight position?

Birds have hollow bones, so healing is an issue. If its hanging its probably not a good sign. I'd have to see it to get an idea of how bad it is but even if you were to bring it to a rehab probably won't be good.
Again vet and rehab best you could do even then I doubt it will live in the wild for long.

Anyway its probably fucked. To expand on that, even if you took it to a place it won't be released into the wild and I doubt they want to keep it so it will probably be euthanized. Fine in captivity but nobody wants one.

Yeah I don't have trouble keeping it if it can't fly again.
It can spread its wings though and tries to fly but obviously fails. Then the wing falls into a normal position but after a while the tip starts to hang

Catch it take it to a vet and see if they can do anything i wouldnt try an at home cast or whatever

It's done now my mother left the fence door open and it went away
We couldnt find it so we asume it could fly in an open space, or so we hope
