The vet said it takes a cocky 3 days to die from when it can no longer eat. A tragedy. Grotty, there are so many cockies with this disease - it is such a sad sight.

I fed the sick ones at first, still do and tried to catch them. The bloke at the pet shop told me not to catch them as there are not enough carers to look after them. I recall being about 7, my great grand father's index finger was latched onto by their pet cocky. I can not forget that sight. He was such a tall man, maybe I was little and way - way up there was cocky not letting go as if he were a flag on a flag pole. Byeeee Evening,
