Hi, I've not been on here for a while but not really had any issues. However, I have a lutino linnie who is 2 years old, home bred and is currently in an aviary with another 11 linnies. When it comes to getting them in at night, she has occasionally fallen to the floor but makes her way along perches/ropes to the hatch. She has also occasionally ended up on her back and struggled to get up. This has been witnessed by my husband so not sure how she ended up on her back.
This morning, I saw it for myself. She went to climb up the aviary mesh but 'fell over' and ended up on her back. I went to pick her up and she righted herself. She walked up the spiral to the ropes and went outside. She was a bit uncertain on her feet but she managed to walk. One of her legs seemed not to be working right but not very noticeably. She doesn't seem to want to fly long distances and will only fly about 2 feet, preferring to walk along the ropes. She is last out in the morning and last in at night and is not quite right but I can't see any other symptoms. She is not fluffed up.
Has anybody come across this?
Thanks for reading.
