Good thing you found them & took them in. No telling how long or how far they have traveled.
Since you're not in Australia the bird is not native & is a lost pet. Sadly someone is missing him.
I have seen someone in the USA that has been looking for there stolen galah for over 2 years.
They continually put an ad out with a reward hoping somehow there bird will be returned.
I'm not trying to say that your galah is the stolen galah only trying to put the point across
on how heartbreaking it is to lose a bird. If you lost your bird you would hope that the person who found him
would do his best to try to return it.

I don't know how common brass rings are in Dubai but they are not widely used in US. You might keep this info
confidential in case someone claims to own the bird you can use this to confirm the owner by asking them to describe the band.

I'm glad you found him & he is well cared for & safe.
Not too often a pretty pink bird flies into your life.

Hello everyone,

I need your help again please!
I've had a little bit of a scare today when I woke up.
The Galah's nostrils were open again today meaning he's probably had a sneeze but what upset me was his left nostril was wet and a little sticky but he Galah is still very loud and chirpy and very energetic.
After about 5-10 minuets the wetness of the nostril has gone and he looks back to normal and screaming the house down once again.
Should it be something to be worried about?

Hope to hear from you all soon

I really can't see much in the photo's (also saw your other thread)
Keep a close watch on him. A vet check is often advised with a new bird & you don't know anything about his history.
I heard a lot of birds bred in Dubai have disease.
Hopefully @mythic55 will drop by. She lived in Dubai & can recommend a vet.

Hope everything is OK.

you also could look up mythic55 and her posts, if I am not mistaken she wrote about some the vets in Dubai.
