I recently joined and posted on the introduction thread with some very warm welcomes, thank you
I included a few pictures of my little guy and his overgrown beak. We went on our first veterinarian visit at the Canobie Lake Veterinary Hospital in Windham NH. Dr. Magnuson and then entire staff were awesome. They asked a whole lot of really great questions and were very caring.
Randy weighed in at 586grams and I was very happy that he pooped his very first one on the way over. The Doc was so amazed at how active he was. And while I worried and fussed over his overgrown beak, the vet said it wasn't that bad after all. Still she said he was so friendly she could definitely take care of it without sedating him.
They took the time to show me how to cut nails and important things to look out for. But most of all, I left feeling like he was a healthy guy and I was doing a great job. They called me the next day to see how he was doing and then again in a few days with a great report from the stool check.
And now his appetite has just taken off! I'm so happy he's eating regularly and digging and climbing. He's enjoying his soaks and absolutely enjoys a good head and neck rub.
Here's the before and after pics.
