Hi, My baby finch is 6 weeks old but is yet starting to change its beak color but was (maybe) beaten up by its father. Yesterday his 1 leg seemed to stop working and today other leg as well. I massaged his 1 leg a bit but I am worried. What should I do? The leg doesn't feel broken just unfunctional. Should I keep it separated or along with mother. Please advise as it is impossible to contact or see any vet.

This could be a bacterial condition causing the paralysis. Antibiotics could help along with massaging the legs in a bicycling motion, will help with blood flow. - A Vet may be needed if no change. Here is a link to the many things that could bring on the paralysis. wagwalking.com/

If it doesnt get better maybe you have a wildlife department in your town that can help you.
