My wife and i are new to the forum and also new to owning a 7 to 8 month old B&G Macaw.
"Mac" slipped off his play perch this evening and hit the floor kind of hard. Was quieter than usual for a bit. Ate dinner fine (sweet potatoes and a tiny bit of broccoli).
My wife was holding him and said she saw a crack at the very tip of his upper beak. I think I see a tiny line but can't say for sure it is a crack. No blood or anything like that. The mark runs across the beak about 1/16" from the very tip.
My wife wants to rush "her baby" to the vet but I think it may be a bit of over reaction at this point.
I've read some posts and articles on line but most mention bleeding etc.
I'd appreciate the input of the more experience bird folks here.
TIA!
