Parrot Gets False Leg

[DeadlyChinchilla]

What a weird thing to do... have they never heard of a nest before? Get the bird a box, fill it with happy birdy fillings, and he'll sleep like a baby. No need for odd perch attachments he might never use, since Greys are so finicky.

And the "he hasn't slept in 18 months" thing is kind of silly.

God heal that bird.

0:53 A nonverbal message to his attacker. There will be blood!

[KatyBananaPeel]

@VladimirVLD MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[Jokaanan]

So why can't humans stay awake for 18 months? (asked the college student)

[nellie2581]

Great story

[Brutaka921]

Same thing happened to my parakeet. Some thing knocked his cage over at night, and he lost a nail. He's alive, and the vet fixed him up, but the ordeal was very traumatizing for him.

[jgk381]

They make it seem like they solved the problem, but knowing african greys he's never going accept that thing. poor guy

[TheDoDylan]

poor bird

[Omdullla]

18 fking months?!?

[ainschiaki]

i want to know the result

[yaknowurright]

.....did he end up sleeping?

[Janfromboone]

Hats off to the people trying to help the poor parrot. Wish there was a prosthetic leg they could come up with instead of a perch attatchment. He doesn't need two legs to sleep. He could sleep on a towel in the bottom of the cage. My bird frequently roosts one leg supporting and the other in the feathers of his belly.

[ke9779]

it has the same cage my rabbit does

[6cuppycakes9]

why is it so big?....thats what he said

[leztiger]

that strang that this bird can't sleep because it has one leg get when my bird sleeps it always stands on one leg

[jgk381]

@leztiger mine too, but i think the foot keeps their balance, w/o it it must be hard. I always fely bad that they're always standing even on two feet, because they cant fly to gt off the feet once in a while, but at least they can switch feet. this poor bird has all its weight on one foot all day and night and cant get a break. I want to know happened today?

[tara011393]

y didnt you show him sleeping? isnt that the point of this video

[loli6051016]

um why is it in a guinea pig/hamster cage??

[jasmine7596]

mayb the owner thought that he can't fly anyway so they put him a guinea pig/ hamster cage

[loli6051016]

hmmm maybe

[ridingisasport]

Starvation is not aneorexia....look it up, dumbass

[natureperson420]

ok. he can balance and i see birds sleeping on one foot all the time. this guy is an asshole the parrot is more uncomfortable with that un-natural chunk of plastick you ever see that other one with those two disk of plastick  this guys is proabaly better what im tryoing to say is you all can die

[NeexFox]

The parrot can take it out...

[spanky9876]

i clicked on this thinking i would see a pirate-parrot...

[natureperson420]

lol

[flybybutterflies]

it lives in a guinea pig cage.

[jgk381]

@flybybutterflies Hes probably in a small cage so he can get to his food/water and get around easier. The bigger the cage the harder iit would be to get to everything.

[lovevsabsence]

18 months... that's a lot. @____@ how did it survive?

[yancyjosan]

i was thinking the same exact thing!! lol

[soheiljerusalem]

Great job guys ! Way to go !

[robertghouston]

18 months! He must've got some sleep, cos I don't think he'd be alive otherwise. I know a human will die if he doesn't get at least some sleep. I know I couldn't survive without 6-8 hours a night.

[jgk381]

@robertghouston yeah, i agree. they probably mean he hasnt had a "good" night sleep in 18 months since it happened, because he probably wakes up often throughout the night trying to get comfortable.

[vivaisabella]

The poor parrot. At least now he will be able to sleep comfortably :)
