Hi! I need help for my bird

[Hannatx1]

My lovebird ( Kettle☹) Its leg got caught between its food dish and the cage. I quickly freed it. It’s hopping around now, but it can’t properly put weight on its left leg and keeps holding it up. Do you think the leg is broken, or is it just a minor injury? Unfortunately, the staff at the nearest pet shop killed my previous bird because they didn't know what they were doing, so I can't take my bird there.

Please help me out

No pet shops for anything other then food or toys!
If she does not improve by nite time, seek a vet with Avian qualifications. If the leg/foot look normal more likely she strained it. Keep activity to a minimum, keep her warm, maybe put some soft bedding in her cage, like a towel.

In my opinion, any of the vets listed here should be better than a regular vet.
International contacts, too.
If none are near you, maybe you could call and ask for a recommendation for somebody in your area.
And... sometimes, distant vets will offer brief thoughts or advice...
Or... sometimes I find a place to start just by Googling "avian veterinarian near ((your location))"
Or maybe a local breeder might help... again, maybe Google?
