he has been flying around and falling to rug not hard though. I especially went out of my way to make him move faster beat his wings per say. to see if he was going to bleed again..

so far no blood and he is just as fiesty.. I am still having the luck of getting him to step up on finger and put him on shoulder...

am hopin g that he pulled out the quill himself..
QUESTION:
if it doesnt bleeed will I need to take him to vet STILL. or will it come out with new feather that grows there

i am not in position to drive half hour especially in this weather ( its minus 30 with wind chill factor.). with a budgie that seems healthy..right now... and yet I dont want this to hurt him

If she is not bleeding, don't worry about it.
She will be just fine.

I agree with Susan, if he's not bleeding and he's acting fine, I don't think you'll need a vet visit. The only reason that I took Jerry in was because his quill was still in and it bled a second time.

thank you both for your replys.

I am still watching and have corn starch available at a moments grasp to stop bleeding if it starts again..

:sign thankspin:

Glad to read that Jojo is doing so well!

If its not bleeding the chances are he pulled it himself already and all if well.

Sounds like he's on the mend.

Have you decided what to do to the partition to make it safer?
If it addresses the problem, maybe try rope tacked on the top of the partition to act as a continuous perch?

Glad to hear he's ok.

I have put the partition together and have it carpet taped as to make it wider .. for now. will then nail if it works..

am watching real close the two of them..
