- Mister (Nanday Conure) Is the only parrot I own but I also own Dusk (Red Canary).
Before I say anything else I want to make it clear that I am going to take him to a vet as soon as a I can, I just wanted to know if it was an emergency or if I can at least wait until after the holidays.
So I have a Nanday Conure ( he is about 2 years old) and for as long as I can remember he has had a light orange feather right above where his tail feathers start. When I first noticed it I though nothing of it and just let it be it. He didn't seem to mind me touching it so I figured it was normal, I looked it up online and I couldn't find anything about it so I figured it probably wasn't anything serious. Just a few minutes ago I took a shower and let him play in the water that gathered at the bottom (the water was not soapy or anything). I noticed that he had more of the feathers, so I picked him up and noticed he had a bump too. I finished up my shower and took a closer look at it. I'm still not sure if its actually a bump. He still doesn't seem to care if I touch it. So I'm just not sure what to do about it.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm really worried. Any info on the light orange feathers would be great too. (I'm going to feel really stupid its just his tailbone and not a bump haha)
-Thank you
