This is so sad about jibby.
![Crying or Very sad :cry:](./images/smilies/icon_cry.gif)
When Luna was injured and in shock, we took her in to the vet on an emergancy appointment. He treated her for pain and shock. For the shock, it was a vitamin B formula and sent some pain medicine home with us. It also had something in it to calm her. It was good that you are trying to stop the bleeding and protect the wound. When Luna was injured, I used aloe vera gel becouse it helps reduce the pain and speeds healing. It is also used to calm an injured bird. If you can use some aloe vera on the wound now, it will reduce the pain and if the pain is reduced Jibby will be able to sleep and rest. He is stressed and needs as much quiet time as possable. And give him soft foods that is easy to digest, but keep him eating if you can. He will get weak fast becouse of the stress and shock. It may be more calming to him to cover his cage to make him feel more secure for now. He knows he is injured and rather helpless right now. He will feel safer and be more calm if he has privacy. In the wild, he would hide becouse he would be vulnerable to attack.
If he doesn't have a broken bone and he doesn't get infection, he should heal OK. But I am concerned about the effects of shock. When an animal, birds or even humans are in shock, the adrenal gland puts out lactic acid and a lot of it. The amount of lactic acid that can pour into the system can become toxic. For birds and small animals, this is very dangerouse. Becouse there liver and kidneys can't filter this toxin out. They are too small.
I am possitive that if I did not treat Luna with the herbal formula to detox her, We could have lost her. I know there was a lot of toxins in her, becouse when I was useing the detox formula on her, her poops smelled really bad for a while. But there was an almost immediate change of improvement after I detoxed her. So now I am a firm believer in doing this when your bird is suffering from shock or trauma. And I didn't tell my vet that I did this for Luna, becouse it is not a part of conventional medicine. It was herbal natural medication. But he did say later, that Luna was doing so good, that whatever I was doing to keep it up.
I'm sorry for this reply being so long, but I want to help you with what I have learned after Luna was injured. I just hope I can help anyone else as much as possable. Only one other thing. We have a female IRN and we know they can be aggressive, They have been known to kill males when housed togather. I don't know if the females are hard wired to be aggressive or if it comes seasonal. I hope I have been some help and that Jibby will recover.
