Why I started making Flat Bird Perches for Disabled Birds. While grooming a cockatiel at a home I noticed one foot was broken. PET OWNER VERSION Bone and Muscle Disorders of Pet Birds. I put him back in the cage and watched him pull himself up the ladder dragging that foot. At the top he then proceed to hold on to the side of the cage while trying to balance on a round perch. I am assuming he stayed that way most of his life. Leaving that house I felt so bad for that bird. The next day I made a flat perch for him and tried to get the owner to buy it for the bird, I ended up leaving it outside his house. Not needing the $10. but that cockatiel really needed that flat perch. A Small Flat Perch for a Cockatiel (not the Original)
