I´ve taken Adé to the vet today. She seems fine, and ¨normal¨ but she isn´t able to fly. With her having a bad foot, it means she can´t get around her cage well at all (I moved her into a flight cage last Christmas). On saturday I had seen her getting around the cage fine, fluttering from perch to perch ok and getting on and off the platform swing she loves (She laid an egg from there), but yesterday she was trying to get up there and was struggling, so I put a small teatowel in the lower corner for her and a small water bowl and food, and hoped she would bounce back, but this morning I got her out, and she´s the same, no ability to fly.
Vet has given her an anti-inflamatory and liquid calcium + vitamins - he thinks she just needs a boost after the egg, even though she is a good eater and loves her veggies.
He gave me meds to give her later today and every morning night for a few days.
Weight is down to 44g, a few g lower than usual.
He has said if she is worse, or weighs less tomorrow evening, to bring her back.
Also, he checked her wings for cuts, damage, bruises and said they looked fine.
She´s back in her cage now. Sydney is taking good care of her, feeding her and keeping her warm.
Don´t pity her, she is a tough cookie, and I´m sure she´ll be fine. She just needs a little helping hand from her vet is all
Here she is on the way home,
