Health & WellnessWild parrot beak discolored and peeling. Is it sick? Can I help?
It is best not to let your pet bird interact with wild birds as they can easily spread illnesses and disease back and forth to each other. If you suspect the wild bird may be ill and he will let you handle him, it is best to try and catch him so that you can bring him in for medical care. If he will not allow handling, then speaking with a local wildlife rescue/rehab in your area that can safely capture and treat him is best.
