    Help! Broken leg

    I might try to do something myself because I don't have much trust in my avian vets but I love Silver so I of course wouldn't want to replace her. Do you know where the thread by monarc is? I tried searching for it but couldn't find it.

    Help! Broken leg

    Thanks. She is eating, drinking, and alert and I gave her some cat food soaked in water. She's hopping around a bit but mostly is laying down and staying off her leg, which is good. I hope the vet will be able to fix her leg, or at least amputate.

    Help! Broken leg

    I found my button Silver with her head stuck between two of the top bars. I freed her but her leg is stiff and stuck out behind her, like its broken or she ripped it out of its socket while flailing around. I've moved her into her own cage separate from the other buttons but I don't know what to...

    sign the petition, mass slaughter of muscovies

    Uh, I don't know, the fact that they SHOULDN'T be killed. It's not like a bunch of wild ducks have overpopulated an area and are now going to die of starvation, these are domestic animals, like a cat that is feral. They don;t just slaughter cats, they try to find them homes. they give them a...

    http://www.thepetitionsite.com/3/protect-florida-muscovies 200+ ducks in FL are going to be killed because of overpopulation. Apparently people dumped ducks, which isn't very uncommon unfortunately I wish someone could rescue some. And someone needs to tell the idiots that are signing the...

    Crayola markers safe?

    Budgies are budgerigars or what most people call parakeets (not their proper name though, since lots of birds are in the parakeet family).

    Crayola markers safe?

    They arent chickens, they're budgies, but all birds are probably pretty sensitive. Alright, I suppose I won't then

    Crayola markers safe?

    I need to make a mark on each of my lutino budgies so I don't mix them up, and I use food colring which I know is 100% safe but I don't know where the food coloring is and my mom is asleep so i can't ask her. Anyways, I'm inpatient so I wanted to just use crayola markers now and then later today...

    Why do some topics completely disappear?

    Why not just lock the thread instead? And why can't you question their judgment?

    WARNING! do not leave 1 day old chicks by water. My babies drowned!

    You can also use shallow lids and frisbees (A few years ago at earth day we got tiny little frisbees which i now use for water dishes for my buttons. works great)

    I have to keep my mouth shut and I hate it!!

    Imo, feeding any live animal to anything is wrong. i wouldnt feed a chick to something anymore than I would feed a mouse to something. i'd keep the chicks/mice/rats/etc as pets instead and get rid of the snake.

    Egg shells.. replace every day?

    The egg shell is from Boiled eggs, so they are heated, in a way.

    Egg shells.. replace every day?

    I put a bowl of egg shells in for my buttons and budgies and it lasts at least 3 days, but I'm not sure if I shold be throwing out what they haven't eaten everyday and replacing it with fresh egg shell? Does it spoil? Does egg shell work as grit? And you know how when you peel the egg shell off...
