language
Most of the big groups post in English. You will get more replies by posting in English. Copy and paste your post into English by using a website like www.translate.google.com and let people know that you used a translator, in case there are errors.
Facebook automatically translates posts, so you can easily talk to people anywhere in the world. You may need to turn translate on in your facebook setting.

deleting your post or marking it "solved"
You may get a few very helpful answers and wish to delete your post or mark it as "solved". If you do this, you may miss even more helpful information from rescuers who are not currently online to see your post.
replies
Check all of the comments, including replies to other commenters. Some users will write to you in a reply to someone else.
updates
Repost or make update posts if more help is needed. Most members of pigeon groups and animal rescue groups want your rescue pigeon to get help, so do not worry about being annoying.
If you are making an update about your rescue pigeon, it will help others if you include a link to your previous post.
~> ! Always either make a new post, or reply to the comments from people who were helping you. No one will see if you leave a comment on your own post. ! <~
focus on positive comments
Hearing about different opinions or personal experiences is always helpful, but if you recieve comments that are cruel or if someone continues to harrass you, then please ignore or block that person. There are people who target the online rescue community, especially users who seem young or emotionally vulnerable.
