Urgent Sore foot :( not urgent

[Jazzy*]

I woke jazzy up this morning to find that she was acting off, I gave her a little pumpkin seed but she could not hold it in her right foot.

I then took her out to see if she had a cut or something on her foot. There is some redness and it feel warm so I have booked her to see a vet tonight, not sure if its bumblefoot or something else but she is not moving off of her plantform perch.


has anyone had a parrot with bumble foot if so any tips on how to help it ?

thanks!

Bumble foot would have warn red spots on the bottom area of the foot.

I hope she's okay!

I have a feeling it's the start of bumble foot as she dose have a red spot or two on that one Foot. She I'd still eating an drinking so that's good.

The vet will probably out her on baytril and Metacam. Glad you noticed early, if it is bumblefoot, once they get the open sores, it's a mess! Perch variety is the best, which sounds like you already have, hope she's OK!
