I've noticed that Merlin keeps his head to the side and his flying has become very poor these last 2 days. I thought maybe he'd crash in the wall but searching on the internet people with a similar case say their bird had infection (due to contact with new birds from the store) or a stroke or trouble with their ear but then there was also blood or pus leaking and bad balance. I can't feel anything wrong around his head/neck either.
Merlin is his old self, eating and interacting normally with Nova, but he's lost some weight. Nova has also gone down although they get plenty of food and don't eat it up. She just went through a molt though so that would be normal for her.
Had anyone had a similar case? I have of course considered going to the vet but then it's closed during the long week end, and my avian vet hasn't been helpful in the past so I feel I might get more help from here..
He is also sleeping with his head bent instead of on his back...
