Aggresive behaviour....! (budgie foot bitten)

[Harshvardhan]

Hi guys, this was absolutely new for me..my Rome and Kiwi fought like hell today. Rome caught kiwi's leg n bite it so hard that it started bleeding.

Kiwi's leg is hurt, how can i help him.....?

All you can do is keep the wound clean and dry and it should heal.

Do you have savlon or some kind of antiseptic cream that you can apply a tiny amount of?

This happened to my own kiwi quite recently. I separated the budgie that had caused it for a few days. To allow time to heal. I also took the mirror away that I think had something to do with it.

I bathed a bit of the blood off and as it had stopped bleeding and started congealing I left it to heal, which it did.

Just keep an eye on your bud and as Marianne said even try savlon and just let it heal. Check if they were fighting over something and if so remove it.

I was told to dab iodine on the wound, i think there is an avian equivalent.

it is also said cornflour or flour (clean) can help stop bleeding, if they keep fighting, you will have to separate them for their own good, good luck!

Ouch that looks nasty! Hope it's healing ok and the birds are behaving themselves now, Did you need to separate them?

[Harshvardhan]

Yes i did seperated them for 2 days but now everything is falling into places......kiwi's foot is healing ..the wound is all dried up and my buds are behaving well also..
But i m still wondering what caused such a conflict.....and since then both of my buds are keeping distance from one another...:confused:

Can't help afraid but I know that mine can make a terrible noise when one of them pulls the others tail feather or stands on the others feathers! They also have their little moods, sometimes mine want to be together, playing, preening and feeding nicely then all of a sudden (the female usually) gives Tyler the male a peck and shoo's him away. Thus the saying 'hen pecked' Never had this before though, my last couple it was the male who was more aggressive!

This could well be because the birds do not have much room. Have you gotten yourself a larger second cage to give them all more space? I do remember saying that fighting is a possibility when they do not have enough room to get away from each other.
