Dosen't he look better?

Well here is the male gould that almost died from the deformed beak. He is doing great. I have a handicapped female zebra keeping him company for the time being.

Johnboy, he looks so much better. I hope he continues to improve and will soon be able to join the rest of your birds.

The only other thing I did was pack the beak with diatomaceous earth to help in the healing.

He really is looking much better now. I didn't think he would do that well after seeing the first pics of his beak. You must be doing something right! \:D/

Good job! He looks so much better--can't believe how much that beak grew.
