I'm so sorry! :( I agree with having a necropsy done. It could save your other birds.

If you decide to do it, you should put his body in the fridge but not the freezer until you can get to the vet.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Please do a necropsy for the sake of your other budgie.

So very sorry for your loss. He had 3 weeks where he was loved. It would have happened if you wouldn't have adopted him, he was so lucky to have been adopted and loved.

Sorry for your loss. Budgies are very sweet little birdies and yes even though they are $20 they are a living creature that gives and receives love. He at least was with someone that loved him when he passed.

I believe that people and animals can hear and understand what you say to them during passage. Your baby knows that he was loved.
I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry... I know exactly how much this hurts. I had my beautiful first budgie for only a week before this happened to him. It's such a terrible thing because you fall so deeply in love with these little birds so fast. Please give lots of love to Alder, hopefully you two can both heal and she will be able to have a new friend when you are ready. Lots of hugs and love.

I know it hurts but it's good you were able to be with him until the end, I'm sure he knows he was loved.

I called in to work and my boss understood and let me have the day off. Probably going to spend my day with Alder. Even though she didn't like Zackie, she can still tell when something's wrong, and I don't want her to stress out even more over me closing myself off.
Again, thank you all. I'm hoping I'll be okay to go to work tomorrow. Dad suggested I bring home Zaxl's old mate from the store, but I don't think I'm ready.
