So, my tiny little avic went into moult last night (9pm here now), and i checked this morning and he was still half in his moult. Thought it was taking a bit long, but left him to it for another 6 hours or so..turns out he did have his legs stuck like i thought.
I put a little bit of water on the moult to try and soften it up. I managed to very slowly release the legs, the only thing is, they look very deformed and he already dropped one prior me helping out.
I've taken him out of the set up he was in, and put him in a very small container as you can see in the picture. Now what do i do? I assume he will try and drop those other legs? And if he survives, that will mean he has no legs on one side . IF he does make it, im going to put him in a very basic terrestrial style enclosure - is that ok? Just incase he were to lose his footing and fall. (I'm using he, just because it's easier to write)
I have seen a picture of someone with a one leg sling that was getting along ok lol. I just hope he will be ok, as it's my favourite one.
