Parrot ‘robbed’ his owners and swallowed 21 diamonds

Frosty is a Thai parrot who has recently gone viral on social media due to his fascination with gemstones. According to local media, this colorful bird exchanged cookies and corn for diamonds, so the little thief had to undergo surgery to save his life.

The pet is the favorite of its owner and she could not avoid approaching her jeweler. Attracted by the brilliance of the pieces, he swallowed 21 small but very high value diamonds. Due to their size, these were not an impediment to pass through the narrow body of the bird.

The images of the X-rays and the postoperative period were disseminated by Asia News, a portal that revealed how the desperation of the owner of the parrot for the life of her pet was greater than her interest in recovering her jewelry.

According to its owner, during breakfast no one noticed that the bird almost did not touch its portion, because it had secretly found the diamond necklace and one after another had devoured the links. Hours later, around lunchtime, Frosty was weak, lying down, and unable to eat anything.

The situation alerted the owner, who quickly transferred them to an animal hospital in the region. After undergoing an X-ray, the vet explained that something had consumed the solar parrot and that it was hurting his stomach and could even threaten his life, so they had to undergo surgery immediately.

The intervention lasted just over two hours, in which the doctors managed to extract 21 diamonds of 0.2 carats each and whose sharp edges were hurting Frosty’s stomach.
