okay so I have a cockatiel I believe is sick. She was shaking a bit violently and her back tail is sort of sticking out. She standing weird and a bit tired. I’m not sure if it’s bad, and I can’t go to the vet till Tomorrow. Please help. She was active today and was in her mating phase (sticking her back out, making small chirping sounds). So maybe she’s tired from that?

Without seeing her, it's so hard to say. If you think, she's acting differently, then a vet trip is definitely the safest thing to do. The shaking a bit violently is definitely concerning to me. Could she have been having a seizure? Has she ever laid eggs? I hope she's okay.
She’s laid eggs a year ago, and she’s been sexual active these past few days. I placed her in a small container with food and water and some warm towels. As I was warming up the towels, I noticed she started to seem more active. She wanted to come out of her cage. Which was confusing since minutes ago she was tired. I’ll see if I can take a picture
This isn’t her but this is what she looks like standing. I think she’s egg bound. I’m currently in the bathroom with her, running hot water. It’s not possible for me to see the vet right now since they’re closing soon. It still doesn’t explain the violent shaking she had earlier. She isn’t doing it anymore.
