EgyDiver Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 And lots more photos of him growing up! Sure i will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I was worried about the swelling ,but he assured me it's not swollen ,it's the deformity ,the bone is thicker than the normal bone and it's bowed in the wrong direction. Perhaps the name of "Cowboy" would be fitting. He will be bow legged and have a "Can Do" attitude functioning just fine, due to his adapting to this as he grows. As others have said, he does not know he is "Different". Thanks for sharing what the vet diagnosed this as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoDiego Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Perhaps the name of "Cowboy" would be fitting. This is a cute idea and unique to him, how about Billy after "Billy the Kid!" Or cisco after "The Cisco Kid" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvparrots Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Well hello KoKo!!!!!! Great name and am happy, happy, happy that the perching is going so well. As for the walking, Ana Grey walks like a drunken sailor. She much prefers to fly!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana600 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Well happy happy day for Koko to perch. He is beautiful just the way he is. Glad you are enjoying him so much, I am sure the feeling is mutual. He is a cutie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Well hello Koko, he is a fine looking grey even if he does have a bad foot but that is a good sign that he is able to use it, he will be getting around and climbing like any other grey, thanks for updating us on him and sharing the pictures.

Greywings Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Nice picture really shows what you are talking about, good to see him getting around so well. Birds are adaptable often better at it than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelseaB Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 AWWW, he is so cute!!! So glad that he is able to begin perching, he looks so sweet. Like luvparrots said, he will probably be using his wings so much that the little footy problem will not be an issue for him at all!! Love his name, also.

jotoeng Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Hi, my baby have the same condition with koko, exactly same...please keep koko condition update..so glad to see that he can stand on perch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EgyDiver Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Thank you all for your sweet words i really appreciate your support, and jotoeng i will keep you updated all the time, he's now standing on the perch most of the time and he climbs around the cage frequently he is also flying alot but i had to clip a couple of feathers on each wing because he seems not able to control his landing and once he bumped into the wall and injured his face ,so to be safe i clipped those feathers ,he 's still abel to fly but for short distances and not too high, it seems that he turned out to be left handed so he's not able to use his leg to grab things he's trying but still can't do it ,but it's not handicapping for him atall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
