My 1 year old mili-gold Macaw?

Question

I have a mili-gold macaw and she is 1 year old. Yesterday I noticed that she broke the tip of her beak and it was bleeding a little. I usally give her green beans in the morning and she eats fine. Today I gave her some and she hasnt eaten it or any seed. Could this be just because her beak is sore and she is favoring it or could there be another problem. When she steps up she doesnt use her beak now she is kinda favoring it. Anyt suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

You need to take her to the vet, an Avian Vet. Her beak shouldn't just break like that. There may be some health related reason that needs to be treated. Is your Mili-Gold on a seed diet? If so, a seed diet is not good. Pellets are the best, using seeds only as a treat.
