Hi I put sushi to sleep last night and I did put her to sleep in a smaller cage than normal just to test it out. (She has my whole room throughout the day) and when I woke her up her nose has some dried blood. She does have a vet appointment on Wednesday, but should I try to take her tomorrow instead?

As today is Sunday your options are probably limited.
I don’t have a vet open on Sunday.
I would call first thin in am Monday and see if they will move up the apt.

Vet ASAP. Time is always of the essence when it comes to birds.

Update: Vet said that the redness looks like she’s lacking some vitamin a (she’s not a good pellet eater) and gave me a list of vegetables & fruits that have vitamin a

I told them that I think sushi got hurt from the cage and she said it could be that too but she needs some more vitamin a

I’m glad you took her in. It looked to me like she has rubbed her nose on something and it was raw. But vitamin A can be low in birds that aren’t eating a lot of fresh food.

Peppers, especially hot hot peppers are great source of Vit A. Totally safe for parrots, my Amazon LOVES his peppers.

I tried to introduce peppers and sushi didn’t like them ! She is picky so far the only vegetables she will eat is broccoli, carrots, cucumbers and Roman lettuce

I get my birds to eat peppers by making sure to include the SEEDS of the pepper-either giving the bell pepper core or a slice or halved small hot pepper they can pick the seeds out of.

Gotcha! I should try that out! Another thing is that sushi doesn’t pay attention to bird chop she likes the veggies as they are
