I notived Dexter breathing real heavy about an hour ago. He is tail bobbing too. I cannot hear wheezing to the naked ear. His poops are normal, eating and talking fine. I have a 4:30 pm appointment with avian vet. He is in surgery till then. Please say a little prayer for my Dex. I will update!

Anything in the air in the home? Cooking? Cleaning? Can you get him to an area where he can breathe fresh air?

Judy could Dexter possibly be a girl and is trying to lay an egg?

Praying for Dexter. I think both those suggestions are feasible. What kind of bird is Dexter?

Dexter is a CAG. He could definitely be a she. I have even questioned it. No changes in the air here. Nothing cooked or baked. I will update. Thanks.

Check the vent area and see if there is a bulge. If there is, you can help her pass an egg by smearing a tiny bit of neosporin, vaseline or olive oil on the area. Also you can get her to stand in a sink or tub of warm water that covers her vent to relax the muscles. Is Dexter pooing? If s/he is s/he is not egg bound.
