Some birdy bit Gryphon through the bars just over a week ago. I have two suspects... but leaning towards one particular male HH...
I brought him to my avian vet last Monday, and he found the largest middle toe was broken. He wrapped it really weird. With a cotton ball under the foot and a big tight wrap. I cannot budge the wrap, and I am afraid if I attempted to remove it I could cut or break his leg. So today it's back to the vet for bandage removal. I am hopeful it has healed. He has been on enrofloxacin and meloxicam. Poor baby has been hating life. I have kept him in an aquarium all week so he couldn't try to climb. Last night I moved him back into a crate. I have a new cage for him on order. I am ticked because I got 15% off and then yesterday they made it 25% off...ughh should have waited. But anyway...he won't be going back around parrots again. I am moving him out into the main living area. That's why the need for another cage. His is huge and not the prettiest thing. I ordered the mink cage from petco.
