Whats wrong with fiyero???

Question

My new parakeet, Fiyero, I got yesterday I'm extremely worried about.

This morning I took him out (he's hand trained) of his cage and put him on the play set I got for him, we had a great time, and I figured out he likes his belly rubbed. I just took him out a few minutes ago, and he jumped onto the floor (his wings are clipped), I picked him up and put him on the play set. He than flew into the window three times (once again, injury was limited as he had his wings clipped). I than picked him up and put him on my finger and brought him back to his cage. Now he is breathing really fast and hard.

1. Why did he suddenly go crazy?

2. Did I do alright handling the situation?

3. What would of you done?

4. Why is he breathing so hard and fast .

by the way, it happened maybe a half hour ago.

Answer 1

1. If he can fly ANY distance his wings are NOT clipped. Not PROPERLY, anyway. He "went crazy" because the play set is still a new and unfamiliar thing.

2. Just keep letting him onto the playset and seeing that it won't hurt him. But GET HIS WINGS CLIPPED BETTER.

3. I would have gotten his wings clipped properly.

4. That's what birds do when they're scared.

Answer 2

1. He didn't go crazy he's just paniced.

2.Yes. you did fine

3.My birds run into the windo all the time. They're fine. I"ve had him for 8 yrs. he's always running into the window.

4.He's just a little freaked out right now. Hes probablly not sure what all happened and he's just paniced he'll eventually calm down.
