    I called the foster mom today that I got the girls (guys?) from and she made me feel so good. She said that these things happen sometimes and the fact that I got Riley to the vet so fast makes her think that I am the best mom they could get. It's always good to hear that kind of stuff.

    Diana, did they go ahead and clip the wings while you were there? I hope so! I must get Roger and Milly's wings clipped soon. I have waited too long, because of the eggs, but it is time.

    I'm so glad the sweet thing is ok.

    I had always wondered if styptic powder would work on the feathers, at least until they can be pulled? any thoughts?

    I know people say to use it, but my brother and I tried on Riley. She was flapping her wings and making it worse.

    I don't like getting the wings clipped. Her wings are clipped which is why she tried to fly and fell. I know some people swear by it and I have no problems with it, but personally I like to keep them with full feathers.
