Pet Forum / Birds / Birds / February 2004Zebra Finch HELP needed
I was cleaning my birds' cage this morning, and one of my Zebra Finches got out. She flew around the house, followed by me, my cat and my dog. I finally caught her and got her back in the cage, but I think she might have been injured. It has been about 4 hours now and she is still sitting in the same spot. She is alert and moves her head and blinks when I talk to her, but she seems to be breathing fast. Her body is moving is sort of a slight bob, very quickly. What should I do to help her? > I was cleaning my birds' cage this morning, and one of my Zebra Finches got > out. She flew around the house, followed by me, my cat and my dog.

If you think the bird is injured, then you should take the bird to an avian vet to receive proper medical care. And if you don't have a qualified vet, just mention your general location and someone might be able to point you to one.  Signature~Marco~ "Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

Thanks, you'all. > > I was cleaning my birds' cage this morning, and one of my Zebra Finches > > got [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > And if you don't have a qualified vet, just mention your general location > and someone might be able to point you to one. |
