So I was just sitting watching computer TV last night and the budgie blue landed on my flat screen moitor. I looked up and saw red and black around the mouth and I swear I saw nothing but his tounge and top beak.
I called the vet and left a message and was like hey I saw this, will it grow back should we be talking end of life care etc. I kept watching and saw he was eating some millet and was like ok he won't starve at least.
At this point I should point out that blue....is kind of a "shit disturber" and agressive so if the first time I saw bird blood outside the vets office it would probably be him. He's named after the velociraptor not his shade of color.....which is in fact blue.+
The vet called back and could get me in at 2 pm today.
Well the beak cleaned between yesterday and today, not covered by dark dried blood and I saw the lower bill was in fact still there. THANK GOD.
I took him anyway and the vet thinks it may be "kind of" split but still moving as one. She also cleaned up the blood and it wasn't as bad as it looked. I was given antibiotics to mix with water and siringes of painkiller (oral dose). (For the bird not me).
So he's in the play cage now by himself with his own antibiotic water and he got a dose of expensive bird asprin. His right cheek was bitten pretty hard she had to add some syptic powered after cleaning the wound.
But he's doing fine and wanting to get out really, (not yet bucko). And several other budgies are like dude let us in. You have your own millet and cauliflower and water and the budgie food mix (roudybush, seeds dried veggies and strawberry egg powder.)
I'm very relieved, relieved enough I don't mind I spent 112 bucks on a bird I bought from a previous owner for like 30 bucks.
