So sorry for my absence- Have not wanted to be up & down. I do not know where to begin. Since my last post, I have taken, (twice rushed) my poor Felice back to the vet office 5 times. each and every time (due to covid) I have had to stay in my vehicle so I am really not sure what has taken place. I can tell you, the first time I had him bandaged should have been my last- his wing was in proper place, wasn't perfect but ok. Since then I have ignored my inner voice and allowed them to repeatedly bandage him, and every time his wing looking worse and worse.. to the point they full body bandaged him. with the last time coming to the car and asked me to leave him with them for the day so he could adjust to it - later I found out he was doing 'alligator rolls' Something happened to his leg that day because it looks raw, and his one good wing was twitching.. and ever since he no longer talks and rarely sings. He can't really walk. So just yesterday was our last visit. I said enough, I want everything removed. I don't know what will happen with my guy. He eats & drinks normal, poops normal to date but that is it. I am very sad. I feel I made this situation so much worse for him. He is way worse now after several visits to the vet then he was before he went. Any suggestions for a handicap budgie cage would be great. I will keep you updated. I am really not sure if he is going to pull through or not.

I cannot help with advice but I have to say, I'd be incandescent with rage at that vet.
I'm sorry for the terrible time you are going through. I wish you and Felice the very best for as good an outcome as can be. I remember when my Mr Hibs was in trouble and we didn't know if he'd pull through ... it's a horrible time.
Be strong and very best wishes. Please keep us updated.

Oh my gosh. I feel so sad for you. You did your best by trusting the vet and they have let you down.
I hope that he will recover and feel better. Can we have a photo to see how he is.

No, he can't even walk properly now.Or climb! He is Constantly sleeping now.. I kept thinking once the full body bandage came off he would come around to his old self.. sing and talk again.. but so far nothing. I am So mad at myself for allowing the vet to keep doing this to him.. I rushed him over there about a week into the full body bandage to have removed. I could see where damage was done to his good side and the vet talked me into keeping it on him and actually said she didn't see everything I was mentioning. Before I brought him in he was happy, just couldn't fly. Now he can't climb, walk.. doesn't talk sing. He does eat and drink so we still have that going for us.

I hope Felice can recover from this terrible ordeal, even if he cannot regain his ability to fly.
What a horrible sequence of events

I feel so very sorry for you and am keeping everything crossed for you. My little Charlie was really ill last week and at one point I didn’t think he would make it, but these little birds are stronger than we think…. Just keep him warm and quiet and he might surprise you. 🤞🏻💙
