After a week she drank water on her own, I was overjoyed, within 2 more days she was eating on her own, bobbing up & down as Cockatoos do & really seemed to be improving.
From then on its been nothing but progress for her, She can walk with her head down to balance, she cant fly butis sretching & flapping her wings now, her sores are almost healed & she is doing well.
Rosie,s past owners never noticed how ill she was, thats what happens when you dont spend time handling, observing your birds. They had fed her daily but the seed was such poor quality that she got no nutrition from it. Rosie now eats a varied homecooked diet & a special seed mix which I put together myself to meet her dietry needs.Rosie is putting on weight , she has an adapted stand were she spends her day, a cosy warm pet carrier for nightime. Rosie has TOILET TRAINED herself at nightime & has been clean at night for weeks now! This amazed me.
ROSIE IS THE SWEETEST BRAVEST LITTLE BIRD & IT IS A PLEASURE TO CARE FOR HER.
