Snowflake caught he toe/foot in drug door. It does not appear broken but. Is cut/scrapped. There is no place to take her. I have put cornstarch on would to hopefully stop bleeding. I have her wrapped in a towel and am comforting her. Help welcomed.

I'm glad she's doing better now. Keep an eye on her to make sure the wound is healing normally and that she's able to use the foot properly.

One question that arises since your other birds are breeding - are you sure that she caught her foot in the door, or is it possible that one of the other birds bit her? Cockatiels can bite pretty viciously when they're defending their breeding area, and they tend to go for the other bird's feet.
