My cockatiel took a fall from the top of the fridge and isn’t adjusting his wing in place properly. This is relatively common for him given he is somewhat clumsy so I wasn’t too worried at first, but it’s been a couple of hours and by now he would have notmally sorted it out already. I’m having second thoughts and thinking that maybe I should go to the vet, but all the ones that treat birds are closed. Am I overthinking things?

    Thank you for your concern, I have been through the tango of hearing him scream bloody murder at the vet before, and it was indeed very alarming (stomach issues, and they needed to do some tests). He has been acting OK again for now, this really isn’t that uncommon of an occurrence for him, and he has been flying like an ace today like usual. If he gets up to some funny business again I will indeed be hauling him back to the vet for some more extensive tests.

    I also just want to thank you once more for the help and support :)
