Just received a facebook message from another carer:

"Hey Shelly,
We have a very unwell young shingleback...got picked up literally by a bird and dropped about 10 ft....very lethargic...I dont even think he will see the night out. No obvious injuries aside from rear leg dragging...is about 8 inches long. Any advice???"

Does anyone have any advice they could lend on this matter? She currently has him under a heat lamp. We do not have after hours vets where we are.

Cheers
 
Doesnt sound good. if he does make it through the night taking him to the vets is the best, and probably the only thing u can do for him.
