Re: my bird fell and he's limping...HELP!
Posted by Tammy on 12/30/06

Was this an avian vet? Did they do xrays, he could have
something pinched inside his leg, it is so hard to guess, and
like stated none of us are vets. I know 2 of our macaws had a
battle and one bit the others ankle and foot, vet trip and
liquid stitches on the bottom, but her whole foot and ankle
stayed a littel red and swollen while she was on the meds until
they worked.
