Hi my female budgie has been constantly tapping her foot on the perch she is on. She has been doing this for almost a week now is it normal? Or should I separate her from the other budgies in a smaller cage? She has also has been eating less.

Separating her would be best for now. I am concerned over her reduced appetite, all I can recommend is to contact her vet. Her foot tapping is likely a sign of her discomfort so mention this to the vet as well.
Also wondering about her age (?) there could be an egg on the way given these symptoms.

Update; she now eats normally it’s just her foot that is constant tapping on the perch she is in
