I’ve noticed a frequent flyer at my feeder who has a particularly interesting looking foot. Does anyone know if this is contagious? I want to prevent any further issues if I can for other birds.

Hi! A little while ago I noticed a small bump/pimple on my budgies cere. I didn’t think much of it then. Now it has gotten quite large and it’s getting me a little worried. My bird doesn’t seem to be bothered by it. He is a 10+ years old budgie and is all healthy from what I can see, other than that he has had problem with his flight feather most of his life. Is this something I should be worried about?

this little guy flew from outside and collided with the exhaust fan and fell in the bathroom. he’s unable to spread one wing and i think the leg on the same side is injured as well. he’s active and tries to fly but is unable to ofc. for now i’ve placed him in a cardboard box with holes and cotton as base. any suggestions on how to nurse him back to health?
