American Bulldog Mix,
I can't get a picture of it just yet, but as I moved to PA and am staying with family for a month I realized that one of their Amazons has a circle in the middle of her foot that is protuding, kinda like a cookie cutter. It's not bothering her at all and Idk if it has been there for a while or not :(
 
is it red or pink? could just be from standing on a rough perch does the bird have any rope perches? perches of different sizes? if it isn't sore I'd just watch and see.
 
It's not sore, the circle is light pink but it all looks heeled over, All her perches are the same sizes and java.
 
Having perches all the same size and material can cause this. The pressure is directed to the same area where ever the bird perches. This condition can be changed by just adding a rope perch and perches of different diameter.
 
Thanks! I'll try adding other perches
