MEDICAL
TWO
I HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM FOR YOU TO LOOK FOR AND THAT IS TO KEEP THE BIRD FROM GETTING BORED AS THIS CAN ALSO CAUSE MEDICAL PROBLEMS. BRIAN WHO IS ON THIS SITE HAS A FEMALE HARRIS WHICH DECIDED TO PLUCK IT'S LEG FEATHERS OUT. HE TOOK HER TO THE VET BECAUSE WE BOTH THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY SOME CLEANING FLUID WE WERE USING. BUT THE VET CHECKED HER OUT GAVE BRIAN CREAM FOR THE LEGS BUT WAS MORE INTERESTED ON HOW TO KEEP THE BIRDS MIND ACTIVE. SO EITHER HANG A TENNIS BALL ON A STRING SO IT CAN ATTACK IT OR GIVE IT A BONE OR EVEN BOTH.
HERE ARE SOME PICS OF BREEZE WITH HER PLUCKED LEGS. AND BRIAN ON THE LOWER PIC APPLING THE CREAM WHICH BY THE WAY IS CALLED " FUCIDIN " . AS YOU CAN SEE THE FEATHERS HAVE BEEN PLUCKED BUT SHE HAS NOT BROKE THE SKIN.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I AM GOING TO SAY THIS BUT REMEMBER THIS.                                
THE VET IS ALWAYS THE BEST PLACE TO TAKE THE BIRD TO IF YOU HAVE ANY MEDICAL PROBLEMS.
THESE PICS ARE ONLY FOR INTEREST AND TO SHOW YOU WHAT CAN HAPPEN OR WHAT YOU MAY COME UP AGAINST. WE HOPE THAT BY NOT FOLLOWING OUR MISTAKES YOU WILL AVOID MEETING THESE MEDICAL PROBLEMS BUT NO PROMISES MADE.
