Gosh, he really is a beautiful bird.....
I forgot to mention earlier, that our Moluccan once developed a tumor under her wing, which she started picking at (quite a hole!). The vet biopsied it, stated it appeared to be a carcinoma, and that we might want to consider putting her down (he cauterized the opening and we collared her). We couldn’t do it as we had just put Mickey down due to an unrecoverable stroke.
We didn’t, and low and behold, weeks later, the tumor started to shrink. Clearly it was not a malignancy, and it just goes to show that histology is not a precise science.
Everyone here at AA wishes you and MC the best, as we’ve all been following your saga.
I hope you cut the stinker a little slack now and then. Heavens knows, it’s not always easy!!
