Can these red areas on his foot be cured without medicine? We got him with one toenail missing, so I don't know what happened to it. He can still sit on one foot and has no trouble walking. Can sores form because of dry feet? I have never clipped his nails, but is that bad not to clip them? I think he may be a bit overweight because he sometimes wheezes after flying a lot. He never wheezes at rest or from walking around. His diet consists of mainly seeds. He sometimes eat fruits - grapes, apples, watermelon, etc. He refuses to eat vegetables though. I have tried feeding him carrots and leafy greens, but he throws those away. I let him out of his cage everyday, so he is free to fly whenever he wants. He prefers to sit on me most of the time though and occupies himself by biting my clothes or anything I'm holding. I kept refilling his seeds when I see that his food tray is almost empty, so maybe that is how he gained weight. I figured he is eating because he is hungry, and would stop if he is full. How can I get him to lose weight? I only refill his seeds every morning now. Thanks for any help.
