Thank you so much for the responses! I really appreciate it. I?m guessing a scan of similar sized adult is going to be the way to go. I think the biggest challenge will be to get the underside of the beak contoured correctly so that it?s tongue fits, etc. They even have tiny serrations on the outer edge that serve as ?teeth?; probably not as important. Luckily it?s in front of the nares(nose holes) cause that?s much more involved.
I?m located in Elgin, Texas; which is just outside of Austin. Primarily do horses, but enjoy doing exotics and odd ball stuff like this. I guess most people would have just euthanized the little guy; but had to give him a chance.
