Hi! On Tuesday, my daughter spotted this bird near the door of Chick fil A, and it ended up hopping down the sidewalk to our car as I was ordering...and then when I opened my door, it hopped right on my hand and the rest is history. Weāve contacted all of the shelters and lost pet websites, and have an appointment with an avian vet next week (surprisingly hard to find!). In the meantime, I was hoping someone could tell us what kind of bird this is. Itās about 8ā from head to tail. Weāre feeding it a mix of seed, pellets and veggies and fruit (loves bananas!), and try to give as much social time and handling as it likes (very happy climbing all up and down my arms and shoulders).
Also, it seems to have some discoloration on the beak. Is this common, and should we take it to an emergency vet? The poor thing are and drank like it hadnāt eaten in days, but seems well enough otherwise.
Thanks so much for your help!!
