Four days ago I purchased 2 budgies at our local pet store as there are no breeders in my area.
They are bright, alert, sing and from all appearances seem healthy. They are like clones of one another...sit side by side, eat at the same time sitting side by side. Where one goes the other goes in the cage.
Two days ago I noticed that the "fatty" of the two has very loose poop, very watery. And he/she eats more than any budgie I've ever had. He/she is always in the bowl. Today "Stormy" has been spending a great deal of time on the bottom of the cage which was not normal. Both were either on the perch or the swing.
I don't have a extra cage to take Stormy out and Sparkle appears to be fine. Eating what seeds she/he likes out of the bowl, drinking, singing.
Can anyone help me with what might be causing this and what I can do about. On a fixed income so the Vet is almost out of the question. Thank you.
