For the past two months my tiel has been exhibiting odd behavior and now it's gotten really bad. Two months ago I took her to the vet for nail trim and wing clip. About 3 days later she got real quiet and sleepy and hasn't been singing since. She would eat and drink and poop normal just not vocalize or be very active. A few weeks later she started to show signs of improvement being more active out of the cage but then she started toe tapping. She did this toe tapping for two weeks or so. The entire time I was in contact with my vet who said he didn't know what it could be but if everything else is normal just wait it out. About another week later she stopped toe tapping but was still not vocal so I took her to the vet and he checked her weight and everything and got a clean bill of health. He thought she might be under stimulated and thus bored. Ok so I started taking her outside in her cage and just being more active with her but still no better. Then three day later she started limping on left foot. Took her to vet he said it's not broken like sprained so he gave metacam. Now it's been three days and last night I got home from work and she was laying on the floor.of her cage on a towel. The doctor mentioned this might happen so at first I wasn't concerned but then I noticed her other foot was now completely stiff. So both her feet won't curl around a perch. She can walk but it's very stiff. Does anyone know what this is? I will be going to re vet as soon as they open but I would like to be able to discuss options of what it could be.
