I found out there's a vet right here in town! Though they're only qualified for beak and nail trimmings. They directed me to a second veterinary office in the other town. It's a little further out, but the vets are FAR more qualified there.
I'll be getting a ride down soon.
She's always been a tough little bird thankfully. And bounces back fast from stressful occasions. So I know she'll be okay. I posted that vet thing a while back and wanted to thank you all for the overwhelming support.
Her leg has cleared up thankfully, I just needed to be very thorough with washing it with a disinfectant. Still she's going to the vet just in case. As well, does anyone know how to make a feather protector?
Finally, for everyone in Vernon or Kewlona B.C
DO NOT TAKE YOUR BIRD TO RUTLAND VETERINARY HOSPITAL! Not for something serious. Their aviary vet is not at all qualified for the job in my opinion.
He took one look at my birds injured leg and gave me soap and antibiotic three times. Refused to do skin scrapings or blood work. Finally he jumped from antibiotic to amputation stating that the birds he'd done this on have a low survival rate.
Please, Don't take your birdy there. It'll only end in heartache.
