I think my Cockatiel may have a slight weeze. I only catch the sound here and there other than that acting totally happy eat singing the whole nine. The thing is were just starting to make head way on completely ending hand fear. Wrapping him up in a towel and letting a stranger mess with him is gunna be very stressful for him I don't even need to guess at that. Should I rush him to the vet or do I wait?

Can you get a video of it and email it to your vet and see what they say?

I don't have a vet but that's a good suggestion . Is that a common thing they do I'd hate to "beg for a look" before i'm even established at a vet.

Lining up a vet for your bird is usually the first thing on the list. Glad you noticed the wheeze. It should be professionally taken care of by avian vet.

Thanks for the suggestions although I don't hear it now at all. I think I'm going to hold off I really don't want to stress him for nothing and hopefully by next time he has to go he'll be better with hands.
