Anybody know what this is and how i can treat it at home? None of my local veterinarians take birds in.
Thanks.

Is it dried blood? I looks like there is quills coming back in. Could it have been a blood feather that she/he pulled out?

No, I tried cleaning it assuming it was blood but it is not. My bird keeps picking at it. It seems like it is spreading to the rest of the skin. I’m not sure what to do about it. I am sadden that my local veterinarians do not take birds in. I just wish I could help him, but thank you for taking the time to reply Kristie.

I'm NOT sure what I'm looking at in your photo but that looks like some sort of bite! I also see what LOOKS like stitches????? If I were you, I think I would try and find an avian vet! Not a horse doctor.
