My cockatiel had a little night fright yesterday, though i immediately got out of bed and uncovered her as quick as i could she seems to have hurt her leg. She was favoring her left foot pretty badly in the morning to the point where should could barely climb and would fall off the bars if i didn't help her.
I moved her to a medic cage and she slept for a little while, after a couple hours she was moving around some more and seems a little more alert. She is now sitting on perch with both her feet down now and her toes on her left foot are curling around, but she is not using her left foot for climbing. Her left foot doesn't look swollen or bruised, and i don't see bones that looks out of place.
Do you think she broke it or just a bad sprain?
I do not get paid until tomorrow. Just want to know what i can do to help her with the pain. Can i give her a baby aspirin in some water?(Obviously very diluted in water)
Thank you for the help.
