Lucky the lucky tiel

[nursenurse44]

i was playing a online game on pego when i noticed a conversation going on about this bird named lucky. i got to talking to him and this is what he told me
Lucky was found. he weighed a mere 40 grams. The guy who found him owns meduim and big birds but he took the bird in and even though it not his bird and knowing it needed medical care took the bird to the vet.
he spent 200 on the vet and the antibotics for this bird. he has put up flyers and adds looking for owners but no luck. he will be keeping the bird.
i would say lucky was indeed a lucky bird

Poor thing must have been near death! 40 grams for a cockatiel is way too little!!! Cockatiels should weigh on average between 80-100 grams... I haven't gotten any lost birds though it's pretty horrible to bring in an underweight bird and trying to get the bird to eat more food and healthier food as well! Such a pitty many owners do not care that greatly for the well being of the birds and only think them of so as only needing seed...
