Walking the driveway
This is definitely a situation that's stressing me out badly
Yesterday I left the house for a few hours, I don't know if that has anything to do with the situation, but I think it's still worthy to mention. I didn't know what they did and when I came back they were just their regular selves. Later on i saw them trying to mate. (Again, I don't know if its anything important) The female just threw her partner off and they carried off with their day.
At night, however, I heard a fly buzzing around near the cage. I think it found a way into the cage and possibly startled them, but its just a theory. They then started to fly around panicking, this happened three times. I left a small lamp on, checking the cage regularly, making sure they're comfortably sitting on a perch.
In the morning, I noticed they were uneasy. They ran around their perch when I approached, I got them to stop doing that some time ago. They also left their crests up at all times.
When I looked at the cage more, I realized something strange: two of Harvard's feathers were loose, laying at the bottom of the cage. They're large and I think they're either from his tail, or his they're his secondaries. His wings are clipped though, and they aren't. Then I noticed something that made my heart skip a beat
There were maroon-colored splaches on the toys, the wall, and some of the iron bars. The bars were the most concerning: they weren't one big stream, but dots continuing all the way down, to the bottom, which had a big amount of blood there. I checked for signs of blood on the birds: their feet, beaks, eyes, heads, vents and bodies seemed clean. When they stretched I got a good look at their wings, which were also clean.
