Hi, Hope someone can help.
My mom has an at least 7 yr old female blue Parakeet who just 2 days ago started acting "off". First thing she noticed was that she was strangely quit and her feathers were puffed a little. She turned heater on and that helped, but she has been consistently quiet, and the tail bobbing and breathing hard. Tonight she has a piece of poop stuck it looks like to or in her vent. Not wet looking. Can birds be constipated?
I know how fast things go downhill with birds. We have no Avian vets in our area so we are completely stuck. Weve had her 5yrs and never a problem.
What could this be? - We've never dealt with a sick parakeet.
Thank you.
