Birds - December 2006

Please help me. I do not have money for a vet. I just came home from work and my mom said my bird could no longer stand up. She said he was standing on one of his post and just fell down. He is now laying on the botton of his cage. He seems tired and his right leg is sticking out. He will not eat or drink. what should I do.

I have a pair of large boobies but I was thinking of taking them back to the exotic pet shop because they eat an awful lot of fish but I don't know if I want to buy a smaller pair of boobies because they don't look as grandiose.

I have a 7 year old bird, but I've only had her since august, shes been great all this time but recently, shes been really quiet lately, and sleeping alot.
and also recently she has started to shed alot of feathers, like when i pet her a couple just fall off!


my friend told me that birds go through a phase where they shed all their feathers and grow new ones, is this true?

Indians keep geting their MORBID Gloom on these beautiful inteligent birds by slaughtering them also they try to identify them selves with it. I get sick at the idea of a indian with a feather. Most indians draw pictures of them selves like in arizona as being a bug with a stem cell injector fluke trans forming themselves from a bug into a Indian. I dont want no bug man after my bird National symbol or not.

She is very friendly and loves to eat the same as I do but I wondered if there is some foods that might be harmfull to her.

I have various colours of chinese painted quails and I want to seperate the males from the females. How can I tell the diffference by their colouration? It would be too expensive to get twenty birds DNA tested.

Why do I get a sudden and uncontrollable urge to run and go pick up my pet hen? Could it be her pretty eyes, her soft feathers, or the way her sharp claws tear my shirt to shreds?

Its a baby...and its been pretty quiet...It sits there and sleeps since I've got it. Its chirped a little but it doesn't even move when I go to touch it. It just sits there. Is it just settling in? Maybe I should buy it some toys cos it only has a ladder? It looks bored...keeps closing its eyes..

i am currently hand rearing some cockatiels which i have done many times before
but one of them is 25 days old and on 4 feeds daily but it is always wailing for food even when its crop is full it does it everytime it sees me
has anyone else had a similar experience or know if its normal behaviour or is it just trying to get my attention?
