I dont think you need to worry about the bump on the head. He flew back to you right after crashing, that would indicate that he didnt get a concussion or anything. I think his nose will be a little itchy from the scraping. Remember when you scrape your knee, once the pain is over it starts itching. Thats a sign its healing.
Kika still doesnt 'know' he cant fly and dropped from the top of his cage right to the bottom a couple of times this week (about 2 feet hight). He bumped his nose on one of the perches, I assume, since hes got a scrape on his nose. It had bled, I could see the crust on. But since he looks ok and the injury didnt look infected or angry I just left t the way it was.
But its never a bad idea to get a check up. Especially with the still healing fracture.
What weight is he on now?
Kika: Senegal Parrot.
Guus: Cockatiel, Yellowcheek, cinnamon, pearl, pied.
