Hi everyone !
So I've been browsing my pictures and I found some of a white peacock with some weird looking eye, and as it looked like an injury, I wondered if you guys could tell me how severe this is ? I know for sure that he is blind on that right eye, but I would like to know more about it, if you can tell, as much as possible, just to identify the matter. His left eye is just fine.
Here are pics of him :
October 2011 :
November 2011 :
January 2012 :
Last time I saw him was February 2012. I haven't been visiting the zoo in March at all, only went there again in April 2012, and May 2012.
I hope you people will tell me it's nothing much, yet I would like to know :
Is that what you call Mycoplasma Gallisepticum ?
And if it is, can heal by itself ?
Is it something else than Mycoplasma Gallisepticum ?
If it cannot heal by itself, can it cause death or anything of the sort ?
I hope not, because there is absolutely nothing I can do. And obviously the zoo keepers aren't going to do anything about it either. They do not pay attention to the peafowls.
I've heard of the Mycoplasma Gallisepticum, but I never saw it for real whatsoever, and even with pics on Google, I am unsure as there seem to be variations.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
