I accidentally stepped on my birds head a few minutes earlier, thankfully he isn’t dead but he lost a few feathers from his head, he doesn’t trust me anymore, and he isn’t eating. hes sleeping more than usual and is very quiet since he would normally be very loud and playful. I’m so scared that I accidentally hurt him in a way and I can’t go to a vet today because all stores are closed today in my country.

I'm so sorry! Keep him in his cage or a small carrier to limit activity. Keep an eye on him to make sure he is eating and drinking. I'm not sure what else to suggest :(

ive been watching him and he seems normal, he’s back to being active and is activly doing his tricks and is eating well. Only thing throwing me off is how quieter he is, but overall I’m not seeing any bumps, limping, or anything else of that matter

Please do not allow your bird on the floor. Glad he has recovered.
