Hi All

 

Our budgie has just flown into some cooking oil i have given him a bath with some warm water and a little soap.

What else should i do for him hes just sitting in his cage atm i think the whole ordeal has scared him not to mention myself im worried for him.

 

Thanks for your help

Hi,

I gather the oil wasn't hot, and if not I would wash the bird in warm water with some 'no more tears' baby shampoo, warm rinse it and then let it dry off in a warm, warm spot. Maybe under a light - the same as what you would do for a sick budgie. I'm not sure if there is anything else you could do. It would depend on how oily the bird was as to how effective washing it will be. Hopefully someone with more specific experience will reply. Good luck.

Hey,

If it was me, I would do as Penny suggested, bathe it, and put it in a cage with warmth supplied to the cage, but make sure there is a spot where your budgie can go without the heat.

Good luck

Thanks for the replys sadly he passed away
