How is he doing today?

He's getting more comfortable in his cage, he's engaging with his toys and his mineral stone for the first time and I didn't see him breathing from his mouth but in the night he still has some problems with breathing as far as I can hear. I bought millets, they sould arrive tomorrow and I started putting drops of honey&lemon in his water so hope they'll help! I am trying to find a car (a friend who has a car) to take him to vet now, I'll take him as soon as I find one, hopefully really soon!!

UPDATE:

Convinced my mum to take the taxi and we went to the closest animal hospital for a check up, and he got an all clear!! They said he looks fine and said I should buy vitamin EADC or Avisol + & Avimec anti-parasites and put a drop into his water each 2-3 days for a week then stop the anti-parasites and continue with vitamins. I also got my spray millet he seems to like them

*Sad thing is I think I'm allergic to spray millet, whenever I hold them it's giving me the worst itch. I'm using gloves

Good news! I'm glad he's fine. I'm a little surprised though about the anti-parasites meds. Are you in the U.S.? I don't think that's typically done. But I don't have budgies...

@WeasleyLover ? @MyAussieFriends ? @gibsongrrrl ?

I've never had to use it. @cicerothebird did they do any testing of his droppings and find parasties or any bloodwork or was this just a physical exam?

@cicerothebird , you are going to be a great bird owner! Way to guilt the parents!

Your boy is beautiful!! And he looks good in the photo; I'm glad to learn he's doing better. The only thing I wanted to emphasize was to keep him warm whenever he starts fluffing up and acting ill. Good luck with your little fella!

I'm in Turkey, I think it's common here.

I have a comfy blankie that I've given to him I put that over his cage

No, they didn't do any internal tests like blood or droppings. He checked his eyes, beak, throat, feet and wings and he said he's probably stressed and he looks fine not ill or anything. I asked if he thinks he has air sac mites cause that was what I was worried about and he said he can't see any sings. I guess he gave the parasite meds because I was worried about that. I only have vitamins though I couldn't find anti-parasites in the pet shop I went to.
