Thanks for reaching out. Rarely are wild parakeets nice and handleable. If sleeping a lot, might be sick or malnourished. Try offering food, supply heat support. If still lethargic by tomorrow, seek veterinary help at clinic. Good luck.

Hello, and thanks for your question. That's a raptor - a bird of prey. It is a carnivore (meat eater), and should absolutely NOT be kept as a pet. It's a wild animal, and many raptors are protected by law. I recommend touching base with your local university and/or veterinary hospital. They should be able to connect you with a local ornithologist (bird expert) or wildlife rehabilitator, who will best be able to care for this bird. Without knowing more about the bird and being able to examine it, I cannot guide you further. Male and female raptors often look very similar, so I can't tell you which it is from these photos. I suspect it's a juvenile (young bird) since it's not immediately flying away from you - so it may not yet be able to live on its own if you were to simply release it, depending on how long it's been captive. I encourage you to do the right thing for this beautiful wild animal, and make sure it finds its way into the hands of someone who is knowledgeable in

Hey, I have a rescued female Rose-Ringed Parakeet (Indian Ringneck). Since recently a male parrot has been visiting her daily. I let the two interact but there's a problem. The male has a discolored beak (there also appears to be skin peeling off the

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.

I found a hurt bird yesterday it can't stand on it's foot and it turned up and it can't fly well there's no bleeding or sth a

It would be best to try and find a local wildlife rescue near you, or if one isn't available, a local veterinarian to take a look at the bird and assess its injuries. Wildlife centers are best equipped to help properly care for the injured bird and re-released it back into the wild once it's healthy. Keeping the bird in a quiet, dark, cool location is best until you can get care to help reduce stress and strain on its body.

If you've found a wild bird, the best option is to try and find a wildlife rehab near you that can take the bird in, treat it, and safely release it. If she is becoming listless or unmoving, and isn't wanting to eat or drink, I would be concerned that her condition is worsening and veterinary care should be sought (even if it isn't an avian specialist.)
