Thank you so much for saying nice things about my care of Billybob. He was one of many of the birds that I took in with special extra care needs. He'll be very much missed by us.
He had an iodine deficiency for a while,
I regularly massaged his legs and feet to help his circulation,
His lower beak would get gummed up with oats and I'd keep one nail long so that I could get the gunk out for him.
I preened his head for him (while he tried to bite me) cos his head was always spiky.
He couldn't work out how to get into his cage so he'd fly around one of us and we'd use the taxi stick to put him in.
He was a very special boy and was 6 when he came to live with us, but lived another 5 years. Amazing really.
