    Default My Poor African Grey

    Last night my grey, Ashlar got frightened and flew/hopped from his cage and got hung up on some wires and was choking. We got him to the vet and he had a steriod shot in the chest, he continued to stuggle with breathing all night we were told he probably damaged his trachea and larynx. When we woke up this morning he was much better breathing a bit easier, still not eating and he has no voice. I truly hope he makes a full recovery and that his voice returns. I also hope there isnt to much trama Greys are such big chickens I worry about the effects this will have one him.

    Wow that's sad. :( Well I honestly don't know a lot about birds, but my mother does so I asked her and she said u should try packing ur bird with vitamins to help him or her heal faster and recover. She also said it's probably a matter of time for him or her voice to return since it's so new. Hope this helps, best wishes!

    Thank You very much! He is physically seems normal... breathing well, but he only makes course squawking sounds, however I am confident in his attitude he will make a full recovery.. it will just take time.... Thank you Sephora for talking to your Mom, I am on the way to the pet store this morning so I will see what they have for him.... So until he is back to normal the silence is truly deafening

    Thanks Again!
