Some may have seen most probably haven't, but my budgies got into a fight two days ago.
I originally thought the only injury was some bites to Emelia's foot. Last night I discovered she actually has an injury to her wing too. She's still capable of flying but it's clearly uncomfortable for her as she periodically lifts her wings, and I think a flight feather may be out of place too otherwise she just cant preen it back into place. If I had found it earlier yesterday I would have taken her to the vet for pain relief at the least. Now it's Saturday and I don't even have a way to get to the vets today, so I need to know if there's anything I can do to keep her comfortable. Other then being a bit quiet she seems fine, eating and moving about (I can't speak for drinking as most of you are aware budgies dont often drink in front of people).
I am already annoyed at myself for not taking her yesterday when I could have, so I just need advice to help her till Monday/Tuesday.
