hi jason and ernie good to see another fellow irish join the forum we are few and far between on here i from tullamore where u at look forward to seein some pics of little ernie

oh my thoughts are with you and i fully understand what you are going through i still find it hard to believe that my grey alfie is no longer with me its like loosing a limb i still go to talk or go ova to his cage.with the clipping i think its your decision completly if its puts your mind at ease then to me thats the right choice,this was not your fault it was just a terrible accident dont go blaming yourself just remember the good times you had together. x

hi sorry to hear bout your grey i agree with judy i think giving water would be ok and just like humans the tongue and mouth area is a quick healer its due to the saliva the mouth produces best healing power of all hope your grey gets better soon

i agree i think its wateva your bird agets used to we used to cover alfie when e was alive e would let us know e wanted covering by grinding his beak, was always around same time every night.but come morning he would let u know he wanted cover off by calling us.
