Keep Biting her foot

[biccio]

Hi all! I just want to give you an update since you have been very helpful.

Ivory is in a decent shape, even after the moving (24 hrs by car..and about 2.5 days in a small cage do not help for sure). She is eating..a lot! Probably too much. The leg is in a good shape, but still with bandage. We'll replace the bandage during these days, but she seems ok with that on. She still tries to remove it from time to time, and trying she has lost few feathers. The leg especially is almost with no feathers, but she has more energy than before, so I don't worry too much. We cleaned her a bit and she is even a bit better. She sleeps with her head down..which I am not sure why, but it does not really worry me either.

I will update when we remove/replace the bandage. Thanks again for the support. I could not have made it without you!

Great news!

Very good news, sounds like she is on the mend. It is normal to bite at the bandage. I band my wild-caught birds when I purchase them, and they bite and pick at the bands for quite a while till they get used to them.

So glad she took the trip well & is eating so good. Sweet little bird.

I hope her recovery continues to go smoothly!
