    Your bird wants you to read this (how to care for a bird)

    I’m wondering if someone has put a flyer/pamphlet similar to this one in a pet shop? What are your experiences? If you’re here from the title, this is a pamphlet I’ve constructed and I want to put it out to the world.

    Ok, I just woke up to the bird I was hand-feeding have yellow skin and lay dead at the bottom of the brooder on his stomach, his feet were deformed with no claws and he couldn't open them. What could he have died from? He couldn't have aspirated as his head was held up during feeding.
