Red Vented Bulbul with spraddle leg

[Kitty]

Hi everyone,

One of my feathered babies had to be put to sleep a few months ago. The loss of our precious bird had a huge impact on my partner and myself because we both loved him dearly and we miss him a lot.

A few days ago I started to look for another bird. Nothing could replace the bird I lost, but I like to keep at least two birds so they don't get lonely!

Anyway, I've found a Red Vented Bulbul with spraddle leg... I have a real soft spot for the poor little guy!

I have experience with softbills, but I've never had a Red Vented Bulbul or a bird with spraddle leg...Can anyone give me any advice about Red Vented Bulbuls or caring for birds with spraddle leg?

Here's an attached photo of the Red Vented Bulbul. He's apparently healthy and eating well.

What do you guys think?

I have no knowledge of that type of bird but he is very cute.

Thank you, Aliray.

Is there anyone who's had experience with a bird that has spraddle leg??

I have seen some posts on here about parrots with splayed legs.. Try reposting under the health question section about help with splayed leg

I don't have any advice on his condition, but boy is he cool looking!
