My cockatiel Hazel's toenail is cut, not all the way off, but she got it caught on something I'm guessing, and it's super short and bleeding some. I don't know if this is an emergency, but please help!

Is it still bleeding, put a bit of cornstarch to stop the bleeding if it is. To ease your mind call the vets office, they may want to see her. :cool:

If the bleeding stops, you don't need to do a vet visit

Thank you all very much. It stopped bleeding so I guess it wasn't too bad ^^" I kinda freak out when things happen to my fids, I'm a very worst-case-scenario type person ;) again, thank you!
