beak injury

Yesterday my macaw Ariel fell off a swing because the wire holding it up snapped. She has fallen farther than this before and hasn't really gotten hurt this bad, I'm worried the swing might have fallen on her or something, but I didn't really see what happened when she fell. She did bleed for a...

Hi there, I'm an owner of a close to 1yr old cockatiel, she's my first bird. Yesterday, she flew into a wall while I let her out. She does not show any visible injuries but I think her beak is injured. She is very hesitant of climbing her cage and only eats her millets, she does not eat her...

A couple of days ago I took my Senegal Sammy to a vet to get checked up, see if his beak and nails needed trimmed. They said his nails were fine but the beak was a little on the long side. Since then Sammy has been acting pouty in his cage and not eating his seed and pellet mix. He even won't...

Hello, I've recently noticed that part of my macaw's, Ollie, beak appears to be soft in an area. It is a small section on her upper beak along the bottom edge, on both sides. I was wondering if this was normal, maybe her beak is growing? When I touch it she doesn't react, no pain or anything...

Hello, I would appreciate some advice for my sweet lovebird. He got into a keychain today and managed to get his beak stuck in the rings of the key ring. He wasn't stuck very long and didn't struggle too hard, so no blood or cracks. However there is a pretty serious scratch there now...any...
