w00t!
Thanks!
Beaker is back! I tried using the net, but decided it was a stupid tool when Gonzo slipped out the open door. I found him behind the sofa, sitting on the top of the baseboard heater and decided to just use gloves in the future.
When he was back in the cage, I very slowly went after Beaker and she was actually quiet enough for me to pick her up and put her in the travel cage. The temp was 27° when I headed out the door, and when I folded up the sunshield, there was a thick coat of frost on the windshield that I had to scrape off before we could even leave.
The vet said the abnormal growth of the beak was most likely because of her diet before I got her. The birds were being fed dollar store seeds, and I not only fed them better stuff, but I made sure they had conditioners and vitamins. She was smaller than Gonzo when I got them and she’s bigger than he is, now!
(The snow/rain storm was severe enough that all the mountains around us have snow on them and Pine Mountain is absolutely gorgeous!)
