Urgent Bird Hit Ceiling Fan! HELP

[dearydivya]

Hi guys, I need your help. My 1 month cockatiel hit by fan today 6pm. All avian vet are closed and a bit far. Most probably will be bringing to vet tomorrow morning. There’s no bleeding just blood clotted on her body. Her dropping was in red ( looks like blood), attached picture below. She is weak and sleep dropping her head. I worried to see her like that. Not eating or drinking. Please advice what I can do meanwhile I bring her to vet tomorrow.

She is bleeding internally. Please look around for emergency vets that can hospitalize her tonight. That is probably her only chance.

@Staff can we get this moved to 911?

She started eating & drinking now. She can walk out from the cage and stretch her wings. I suspect her leg is injured too as she standing in one leg. As you said it may have internal bleeding. Unfortunately not bet nearby are treating bird (just dog & cat). I just fix an appointment for tomorrow morning.

How awful, I hope she’ll be okay! She must be in terrible pain. Even a regular vet can prescribe an anti inflammatory/pain med. It’s very important to keep ceiling fans turned off when birds are out. Please keep us updated.

Have you called your vet to see if they have an after hours number to call with emergencies? Or at least give you ideas on how to help her until morning?

Hello lovely people. Thanks a lot for your overwhelmed loving reply. I’m so glad reading your message. It helped me to stay strong in such situations.

Let me update on my bird. I brought her to vet today. He check every inch of my bird and there’s no fractures. The affected area is swelling and he have given an antasone cream for that. Along with nerve supplements, methycobal, rimadyl, multivitamin and metoclopram. Doctor just advised not to allow her to fly for 2 week at least, just for fast recovery.

So my bird Ivy is better now. You can see the picture below as she sleeping on my chest for warmth. Once again thanks a lot for all your loves.
