My 2 year old female budgie in the aviary with a second female who is 4 months, is suddenly bleeding from the vent area!
I picked her up in a towel, had a closer look & her bottom area seems to be somewhat bulging? I don't know if that's normal as usually it's covered with feathers.
She's still flying around, just eaten and drank water, however has now gone into a nest box I recently put in. She seems to like it but no male in the aviary yet.
She's scratching her bottom with her feet which have blood on them too now, is she trying to lay an unfertilized egg?? Why? Is bleeding normal?? What should I do? Bb
