Whilst trawling around YouTube, as you do, I came across this video which I thought I had to share with you (sorry if you’ve already seen it), this is what I call dedication to your African grey.
George the African grey from Cheshire, England lost his claw when a wild animal attacked him, which resulted in him not being able to balance on his perch, this meant 18 months of no sleep, imagine that, he must have been one grumpy bird, I know I would be!!
Well I’m pleased to say George got the attention of some experts and they came up with a prosthetic limb for him, he is now a happy bunny and can balance perfectly well, after a little manipulation to get him into his new leg, anyway enough of my dribble … check George and his new found limb out in this YouTube video.
Any update on this Greys condition? You mentioned he was happy with his prosthetic limb, but in the video it looks like he doesn’t know how to use it. Its sad. I’m concerned about him not sleeping for 18 months and the damage that could do to his little body. I’d like to know what happened with him since its been about 2 years since the video. Did he learn how to use the limb and now can sleep at night?
