nose bleed - nanday conure
We have a Nanday Conure. The bird was purchased in May 2009 and is just over a year old. He appears to have a deformed nostril, the left is a lot larger than the right. He has always had this deformity and this causes him to sneeze often. In the past 3 months I have started to notice some alarming symptoms. I've seen blood spatter on a mirror near his cage where he sneezes and sprays blood. It has been very small amounts. About a month ago he fell off his perch after he'd gone to roost for the night. All of a sudden he fell off and started flapping crazily. I picked him up as I feared he would break a pin feather or hurt himself flapping around like that. I held his wings still but his head kept spinning around wildly. I am pretty sure he had a seizure. Than today he had a severe bloody nose, it was more blood than he had produced before and it started randomly pouring out and the bird hadn't had an accident or anything along those lines. It stopped bleeding after a minute but I am scared, what could this be?
