Very alert and eager to fly. Flew back and forth several times without hesitation. There might be a mild wing droop on the right but it is difficult to tell, since he takes off as soon as I get close.

VET NOTES
Did not evaluate outside but per staff is flying.
Anesthetized for one more round of radiographs and to check PCV/ TS, lead.
Radiographs - pellet in body has moved a little more cranial. It does seem that this is free in the coelom and just shuffling around!
VD and skyline of the wing shows some nice filling in and remodeling of the ulnar callous. The curved metallic opacity w/in the callous is still present. There is a somewhat protruberant area on the ventral aspect of the callous but all in all the fracture is well-aligned and smoothing out.
Measured the pellet in the coelom - it is just under 1 cm long and about 4.6 mm wide. It has been suggested that this is an air gun pellet. Sometimes they have jackets that splinter off in small fragments, perhaps that is what is in the ulna. Alternately this could be from two separate shootings. They are often not lead.
PCV much improved; lead level even lower.
Bird is no longer emaciated.
P: D/c antibiotics. Recheck next week to possibly start light exercise. Dr Gardner

VET NOTES
Screening radiographs/ evaluate wing:
The wing is unwrapped. Callous is fairly large but feels stable. There is good radiographic evidence of healing, although there will need to be a lot of remodeling. The bullet appears to be very superficial over the R stifle, but again not palpable. I suspect it is free in the coelom, although it is frustrating that it is not palpable.
Did PT. The wing is unwrapped.

BARP, hopped off perch and tried to foot. Slight R wing droop. Anesthetized under 3% iso for rads because bird is more alert. Bullet still in same position. Consulted TR - she believes bullet is embedded in coelom and surgical removal could threaten bird's prognosis. R wing callus continuing to form. Wing wounds look great. Recovery uneventful. Changed papers in kennel and bird immediately started eating.

VET NOTES
Standing w/ R foot tucked. NOLO so assume ate last night.
Bandage change - pin-point defect in dorsal aspect of R wing over ulnar fracture. There is also a very small scabbed area ventrally. Cleaned, applied Silver gel, re-wrapped. I would keep wrapped until the wound is healed minimally.
Palpated the right side and coelomic cavity thoroughly but didn't feel anything. I would have thought such a huge piece of ballistics would be readily palpable if not in the GI tract but I couldn't feel anything.
Drew blood from L jugular vein (it was more robust) for PCV/ TS, CBC, and lead level.
Lead = 7.5 - would suggest FB NOT in GIT.
PCV/ TS = 21%/ 3.2

P: Add Clindamycin due to suspected osteomyelitis.
Screening RAD every 2-3 days to see if bullet in coelom is moving.
Got iron dextran incoming, recheck PCV in 1 week. Bandage change every 2-3 days. Consider psillium (that would be metamucil) to help bullet move through coelom. Dr G

Wound care/bandage change: Dorsal R wing wound. Flushed wound and scrubbed with betadine swab. Applied thin layer of Silver Gel and DuoDerm/tega bandage. Reapplied padded figure 8.

QARP with foot tucked. Anesthtized under 2% iso for intake rads. Rads confirmed callus of the R ulna and revealed that bird had at one point been shot. One in tact pellet in body cavity and fragments embedded in R ulna. Unsure where the pellet in the body lies - SC suggested GI tract? Need to get blood lead, will ask Dr. G to try tomorrow. Did light PT. Recovery was a bit slow but uneventful. FF AM food but dropped midday food to see if bird eats since it's late.

RTHA first seen on 3/28 by neighbors attempting to fly multiple times but failing. Quiet and weak, but still alert. Palpated large lump on R wing, but joints have great extension. Consulted ME/BW and decided to treat for soft tissue wound on wing and emaciation until a determination of flight capabilities can be made. Flushed wound and scrubbed with chlorhex. Covered with DuoDerm patch and telfa/tega bandage. Applied padded fig 8, a bit tight, so cut a slit along wrap. Rads ASAP. Set up in KR2 kennel for now.
