Hello,
Long time no post, but as its "The season" and i feel (probably am) pretty overwhelmed with work (7d a week).
But coming back to the storklet. It has been now a bit over 2 weeks since receiving the storklet and i'm able to give you some decisions.
First, the cutting fracture has not healed well. I cant point my finger at a exact cause but it seems that the cut has been too deep into the soft tissue around the broken bone (cartilage) so it may has damaged some important vessels and the remained blood-vessels don't provide sufficient perfusion to the injured distal part of the fractured beak and also the beak is soft and bendy (not like an adult beak) the stability has been a issue.
The second thing is that his siblings are getting ready to fly so we have talked about it and we are sure that under these circumstances its not possible to put the storklet back to the nest. So our current plan is to proceed with the treatments of the bird and give some peaceful time to the beak to heal.
The prognosis for release is guarded as even if the beak has healed he needs to learn and go trough some nature survival skill tests, eg. needs to catch live fish from artificial pond (all my patients go through some species specific survival skill testing before releasing them back to wild)
Well... that's the news for now, not the greatest but he feels great and is pretty feisty to handle for treatments.

17:21 - Tommy and Kelly was walking around, and suddenly Kelly found something eatable. It happened very quick, he ate it so fast, so I didn't see what it was. Maybe a fish that had managed to escape at the last meal??

Tommy wondered what happened..

"Nothing special" :rolleyes:
