Okay, It's been a while since I've been here. But this is quite the emergency.
My Nanday has been for the past day and a half in his cage, and this morning i went to change his food/water and his leg was terribly wounded.
I've ruled out damage from toys, sharp edges, and escaping.
Due to the fact that I see no blood aside from on his perch. which is a small amount. I looked everywhere to see if I could hint what might've happened.
All I can see is his beak with dried blood, which is what got my attention and made me find his leg like this.
Problem is, this doesn't look like plucking whatsoever.
And the wound is WIDE; while his beak is very pointy, and wouldn't create such a "fillet" to the leg.
I've also ruled out human contact that did this, because he is not flinching when I interact with him, nor is he scared of me or anyone else, he just seems like it hurts. A lot.
I've taken a toy that "Seems" the most dangerous in my opinion, and put in another that he can't get "tangled" in by any means.
after finding this I proceeded to give him a bath to wash off any dirt or infection or at least prevent it and held the wound with a towel to make sure the bleeding stopped before I left him to dry off some more.
