As some of you know, I am taking my time and looking for a second bird. There is a not so good, bird store that I go to as people often bring in birds to rehome and I felt that I should get a rehome instead of a baby. Well I really fell for a plucked grey rehome, but decided i really did not have the space right now that he needed. Then i was looking at a female 2 yr old senegal rehome, very sweet. I originally was looking a a baby dusky they had and then found out how loud they are! This little one had so much personality and always wanting to eat when he saw someone near the incubator, coming towards you with wings out, so very Cute! Well, he was attacked by some baby greencheeks that they put him in the warmer with and since then he has been very different, scared, shy, and very quiet. Someone purchased him and then decided they did not want him. I asked why they changed their minds and it is because one of his feet the toes curl around to the front, so he has difficulty trying to perch. He cannot balance on just that foot. He does climb up the cage. So he is being sold for cheap. I can't get him out of my mind, but what could have caused the foot damage? Diet? The attack? Bacteria? He also seems very small for a Dusky. I cried for this little one and I just feel I need to get him. He still is not weaned however. (vet visit of course.) Does anyone know what can cause this kind of disability?
