If Kara has been bleeding from the mouth and it is not stopping after several days, it is best to seek veterinary care immediately. It's possible there could be something in her mouth or throat that has caused injury and bleeding, there is a GI issue causing her to bring up blood, or there is something in her nose/mouth such as a growth or tumor that has burst and is now bleeding. A complete exam is needed to try and find the underlying cause. If she is currently housed with other birds, it is a good idea to move her to a separate hospital cage that is kept warm and with easy access to food and water. This can help avoid having her get picked on by other birds and injured worse, and prevent the spread of any potentially contagious illnesses until she can be seen by a vet.
