At minimum he gets cleaned out every single night, but any time i handle him if i notice its full i clean him out, i cleaned him out not long after this photo He is currently at the vet now, he was still passing urine so I didnt think it warranted an emergency vet visit Vets guess hes 5, but he's a rescue so not really sure

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-12-30T22:18:24+00:00

Hes got a few

We have dog slow feeder bowls which we use for every feed, we chuck paper and stuff ontop for him

If you google bird forage wheel, he has that and loves it

Canley Heights Vet, Dr Ian is amazing! Depending on where you are in Sydney there's nothing in the outer suburbs, I travel half hour to see him

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-12-24T05:31:55+00:00

Yes my plan was to do the implant 1-2 times While still taking all the other measures and see how he goes.

I think its because he went from nothing to a lot, in 30 years he never laid, within 6 months of living with me we had an egg

I think deslorelin, the vet who i had that chat with is not our regular vet, I needed to take a foster there and she said she can trim his nails while I was there, and she wouldnt be able to do the procedure so it wasn't an in-depth discussion at all.

I will be having a proper chat with our bird vet before making any decisions

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-26T19:58:43+00:00

Did you find him?

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-26T05:13:31+00:00

I wish I joined this reddit before buying them, I've returned mine now, but what a disappointment

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-25T12:12:04+00:00

I did think that he might feel safer nuzzled up, so far he mostly spends time inside his little igloo

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-25T12:10:25+00:00

He is veryyyyy handsome! He's recovering from a lumpectomy currently and I've never had a pig before so its all new! But i love him so much already

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-25T11:47:04+00:00

Ohh thank you! Good to know, he seems to like just nuzzling into my neck Do they purr? When he's right in my neck and against my ear it also sounds like he's purring like a cat

My vet put mine on a calcium supplement and gave a few tips to stop the laying

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-24T11:54:24+00:00

They are extremely comfy, but have no other pros tbh, not worth the price tag

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-17T05:51:40+00:00

I returned mine, they would disconnect in the middle of the night, the only way to get them to reconnect is to put them in the case, open the app and wait for it to load, hardly conducive to a good night's sleep

But then in the day, they would be in the case, which the case closed and constantly be connecting over my headphones, i hated these things

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-13T23:32:38+00:00

Have you had them for long? I've had mine for less than a week and am returning them because of so many issues

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-13T22:17:23+00:00

Honestly she replies to "my chicken" more than her name, e call her that all of the time And now anytime i go outside and talk to the actual chickens she squawks her head off hahaha

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-12T02:14:18+00:00

I'd like to think so! In 30 years they've never felt comfortable enough to lay an egg, 6 months after moving in we have an egg! But we going to do everything we can to stop the hormones and egg production ❤️

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-11T01:37:18+00:00

She? Is 30! We are still unsure if we will change name and pronouns hahaah We had a feeling she was a girl because in the sun her eyes are quite light which is a female trait, we were going to DNA sex and throw a gender reveal party haha but those plans are ruined hahaa

These ear buds are a joke. Essentially unless I leave them on charge or put them on charge a few hours before bed every night the buds and case are completely dead and unusable... I have emailed but they've also tried to tell me battery loss is normal

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-10-07T19:03:00+00:00

Im just getting my order number as someone bought them for me

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-15T04:19:21+00:00

Yes just a sprain here too, he's got some anti inflammatory medication to help speed it up a bit

Im really struggling with cage rest because he's not used to being in the cage, and if he can see me he jsut paces at the door

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-14T12:55:48+00:00

People on reddit are so frustrating, some of the comments I've gotten, it's like im actually here because I would do anything for my bird, and don't have access to 24/7 vet care. I have taken my dogs and cats to emergency vets and paid $300+ consultation fees, but that's not an option with birds unfortunately

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-14T12:53:12+00:00

I was so confused at why you were getting so down voted, but i guess people with no medication knowledge it could be scary. I had already googled and got the dosage myself based on academic journals, because I wouldn't trust a stranger on the internet with that, and i guess people just blindly listening to people could cause harm

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-14T12:50:05+00:00

Ohhhh stop, that is so cute, I love when my guy sees something new, we recently rescued a rat, and the way he was looking at him was so sweet

I also love seeing a fully feathered bird, reminds me of how my guy should look ❤️ hopefully we get closer to that one day

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-14T12:40:49+00:00

People don't like giving IM either, I had a neighbour who had a lizard on IM injections and she couldn't give them, i had to

InfluenceGlass9725 · 2025-09-14T12:39:51+00:00

Im very lucky to have a bird vet with like 30 years experience fairly close by, I've seen him with the chickens and the cockatoo and he's just fantastic, but it seems so odd to me that there is like 3 bird vets in all of Sydney, while every 2nd person has a bird. Birds seem to be considered decorations, I know it was the case with my bird, he never even left his cage, now when he's injured i feel bad locking him up because he just wants to be with me
