Hi All, I was trying to research about spaying my african grey. It is one option I have (supposedly) because of a cloacal prolapse. OMG This bird is 15 yr old, dna tested female. I've had her since 3 mo old, finish hand feeding. She had surgery last Tuesday and is doing better. The 1st suggestion was get another bird! Spaying or behavior modification. Apparently she is sexually frustrated and bored out of her mind... She has many toys, a tree she hangs out in everyday. I am so glad to have read all these comments about spaying birds. It just doesn't seem right to spay however, if they take the stitches out, she will prolapse again. What to do?? I REALLY don't want another bird Dang...or more!!! It also doesn't seem right that she has to have stitches in her vent with only enough room to defecate...sheesh.
A friend (ex breeder) suggest to donate her to a breeder and ask for a baby...wow like trade her in I have to make a decision soon, any suggestions would be considered/appreciated....thanks....
