Looking at the time on the post it might possibly be somewhere in the UK - if we do find out where it is & there is anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Angela
It looks as if she's in California, but not sure if it was from BuuZbee or on behalf of someone else - if she was anywhere in the UK I'd have got in the car and driven her to a vet myself.
Fingers crossed for them - they'll be in my thoughts

Hi BuuZbee
I'm so sorry to hear the news - I'm no expert, but it sounds to me as if you really do need to get him to a vet as quicky as possible. I realize it's late, but don't see that you have much alternative in the circumstances. You said that your nearest avian vet is 2 hours away, but do you have a general vet who is any closer? It certainly couldn't hurt to give them a call. In the meantime i would suggest trying to keep him as quiet as you can. Do you have a box (perhaps a shoe box) that you could put a soft blanket in? It may be a good idea to try to immobilize his wings as well so that he doesn't do any further damage to himself. Just a very light bandage should be enough - not an elasticated one if you can avoid as this might tighten and restrict his breathing. I wish you were in the UK as I'd drive you there myself. In the meantime I will be thinking of you - the very best of luck and please don't hesitate if there is anything I can do.
Take care
Ellen

I have a feeling that Bun with be quite attached to them - never mind eh, I'm sure he'll get used to the idea I actually took my horses you know whats to work in a jar after they were gelded, and left them sitting on the shelf in the gents loos - revenge was oh so sweet (maybe that one should be in confessions corner )

I put the end parts of the seed sticks in a feeding dish for my budgies (Cybil & Mr Tickles) and cockatiel (Bertie). They take great delight in watching me put them in there & then, when I have, they wander over and drop them all over the side and onto the floor. This is usually following by lots of disappointed shrieking because the feeding dish is empty! Sucker that I am I pick all the bits up and put them back into the dish again! Guess what! Yup they all come right back out again I must be bonkers, but they love it so much Kenny (one of my Kakarikis) also has a bit of a thing for a lampshade that I happened to leave a litte too close to the cage! It now has a uniquely frayed edge

Well are telling you about it for almost 6 months, here is my new Indoor Aviary. I designed it myself and it really is absolutely perfect. It measures 4ft x 2ft, and is 5ft tall, and as you can see the birdies have the best spot in the house in my bay window I've got solid board around 3 sides up to 2ft in height which really helps with the seed spillage. The large front door is split into two sections - this means that I can clean out the bottom of the aviary easily without having 10 birdies trying to sneak past I also had two small side doors built in (one of each side of the main door) to make feeding easier. This way I can reach all the seed/water/veggie pots with no sneaky birdies slipping by It's also on wheels so that I can move it out easily and just hoover up any seed that makes it over the edge I LOVE IT! Does it show
