Parrot Examiner
Sprinting down the street
So the OH and I went to his mom's house for the evening to be around for the Easter festivities. We saw the new baby horse and watched him play, then rode my buddy (Rebel is his name) and she mentioned having baby chicks. I had totally forgotten she was getting chicks for the farm! I asked her about seeing them and she said one had a lame foot and she wasn't sure it would make it. I asked to take a look and sure enough, the poor thing's foot is useless
He gets around well enough, he doesn't seem to realize his foot is different, but the other chicks do notice. As a result, they take advantage of his poor balance. He's not getting bigger as fast as the others and I offered to take him in to give him a chance. So Bumbles will come back with us tomorrow for some singled-out TLC and if he does okay, he can come back. I'll get some pictures soon, but if anyone knows how to help the little guy out, I would love to hear ideas. I know he's not a parrot, but he's a bird and I fell in love with him instantly. It only took 20 minutes to convince Hubby to let me help Bumbles out
