Current Problem - Pascal has a sore on chin that seems to be getting worse. At first I felt it was abrasion from rubbing on cage. Tried to get into vet last week but have apt for this Thursday-Avian and Exotic Pets in Raleigh. Any ideas?
He is still active, eating, drinking and pooping. He does not like to be handled or have his cage cleaned out and puffs up, lightens color and opens mouth hissing at me. Pictures attached if I did this right. Thanks for your input
