So our baby was the only survivor of the 5 eggs laid by the parents. He has a splayed leg, but we didn't know it wouldn' heal or correct on it's own. Despite the splayed leg he is pretty active and has showed us he is able to clim, jump and fly masterfuly.
We introduced him to some seeds last week, at first he just split them open and didn't eat them, but since yesterday he has been eating them. Today he refused being fed his formula two times and ate less than half of the usual on our third attempt, we've seen him eating seeds, but we are worried seeds won't be enough and proper bird pellets are not easily available over here. We haven't seen him drinking water on his own either, i have tricked him by placing seeds into the water bowl a couple of times.
Today we tried transfering him from the box we had him to a proper bird cage, at first he had some difficulties because of his splayed leg but then he was all calm he even played with this toys. Suddenly he started jumping and crashing all around his cage, i was very worried about him so i got him out, he didn't do this at all when he was inside the box.
Hope you guys can help us out.
