Choosing to sit and sleep on one leg?

Post by DesmondTheFinch » Thu Feb 08, 2018 11:46 pm

Hi this is my Zebra, Desond. Recently he's been choosing to sit on one leg and it does it for long periods at a time, is this Okay? Do I need to check his feet/foot?

You could check his feet, just to be on the safe side.

However, many birds like to sit with one foot uo, it's not unusual at all.
