Vet check: Check outside, RADS if drooping/not flying
Is wing drooping? Am I flying?

Evaluated outside - didn't measure ROM, but today the ROM in carpus and in elbow seemed slightly reduced, but not of major concern. Bird tolerated PT well and did not seem painful. There is some heat palpated over the callous, so I would consider leaving in a smaller mew for a few more days. I think for now it is all right to continue with awake PT outside, also monitor for flight. He didn't really try today, but the mew is pretty small for him. Changed water.

PT: Right wing, ROM - under anesthesia, Under 3% ISO via mask. ROM in wrist is tight. Callus is solid, decided to leave off wing wrap. Leave in small enclosure for now.
Move to - somewhere larger? - Postpone

When placed back in enclosure, climbed right up to perch. Wing was being held out and back slightly as compared to other.

Radiograph from last week shows excellent alignment, and most bone being filled in with callouses. A few fissures still apparent.
Check ROM in 3 days, and at that time decide whether or not to move. Consider bandaging if significant droop.
If more radiographs, make sure to do a skyline. Dr Gardner

Keel score: 2.0
Gave all meds this morning. Premed also with Midazolam 0.18 ml IM.
Anesthetized and intubated. Removed wrap and was surprised a the lack of bruising and the solidity of the whole humerus. On palpation, no mobility was felt and I also could not feel the sharp ends from the oblique fracture at all.
We decided to do follow-up radiographs. The fracture looked just as well aligned as previously - the obliqueness has kept it in better alignment, not allowing the strong muscles of the humerus to misalign those bone fragments.
At this point, surgery would involve totally disrupting the callous, basically rebreaking the bone, possibly introducing infection, etc.
I think the bird has a better prognosis with PT every 2-3 days. The elbow ROM is a bit decreased, but it does loosen up a little with work.
Allowed the bird to recover. Ok to move outside to a condo tomorrow.
Will recheck next week. Dr Gardner

Exam:
Bird presented alert and very bitey but a little quiet. Legs very strong. Dark bruising that is turning green is present along the right humerus but no swelling seemed to be present. Along the humerus there is some callus present where a fracture is begining to heal. After palpating the fracture it seems to be well aligned and midshaft. The fracture is slightly mobile but mostly stable. The wing gets full extension. Other than being skinny and the fracture, no other issues were found.

Treatment:
30cc LRS
0.50cc terbinafine PO
0.40cc Buprenorphine IM

Plan:
Bird will need to get rads in the next few days to confirm fracture. If well aligned, bird can continue to heal in fig 8 wrap and then begin PT
