Did a 6 Week Absence Cause My Budgie’s Negative Behavior?
Hi Mitch,
My name is Barbara T, and you and I just spoke re my parakeet, Ricky, who has been treated by an Avian specialist, Gloria Goodman, VMD (website: avianexoticvetpa.com), for mites since July 2nd, 2020.
As I told you, I had surgery and my sister took care of the bird from May 12th through June 28th.
I noticed immediately that his face looked like it had rot on it and he seemed “antsy”—pecking on his feathers and rubbing his head, especially around the eye area, on the cage.
I called the vet and she saw him on July 2nd.
