Question
HI.  12 YEAR OLD BLUE AND GOLD HAS DEVELOPED PINK SHINY FEET, NOT SWOLLEN, JUST LIKE THE SKIN IS FRAGILE AND NOT FORMING CALLUS.  THERE IS NO AVIAN VET HERE, BUT MY VET WHO HAS A LOT OF BIRDS AS CLIENTELE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO EXCEPT WATCH.  rIO THE BIRD IS FINE OTHERWISE.  THANKS.

Answer
Hi, Steve,

I found your post in the question pool.  Whomever you sent it to originally could not answer for some reason.

My first question would be what type of perches, etc., does your macaw stand on/have available to s/he?  What type of diet is your bird on?  Are you referring to the bottom/underside of the bird's feet or the entire foot?
