I saw her eat and was hopeful, but she just puked up what she had managed to get down :( I'm so worried about her, and exhausted from crying... I don't know what to do for her, and the vet said she should be okay and to keep an eye on her for a couple of days... But if she isn't able to keep down her food I'm scared she'll starve on top of everything else :(

UPDATE
My mom is phoning the vet to ask that they take care of her until she is better... I'm so glad that we can afford to do something like this, and I hope that they give it the okay.
She's playing on my keyboard right now, like she usually does, but her wheezing seems to be getting worse, and she feels way too light... :( oh my poor little girl....

Did they do an xray to see if she's got an enlarged proventriculus? Or if she's got some kind of obstruction in her crop? Make sure you know what their going to do. She should be in a warm incubator with oxygen and they should start crop feedings. Just don't assume they know what they're doing. Many prayers for her to get better.

Thank you everyone she is back at the vet. The avian vet that's there today will do an assessment on her again once she's out of surgery and they will phone me with an update. I believe they will be giving her oxygen and keeping her warm again, like last night.

And I'm sorry Marie if I shouldn't have posted this again here, I just wasn't sure what to do about her regurgitating, but now she is back at the vet and I think they will do what they can to help her. :(

I'm going to add little Fiona to my prayers tonight. Hoping her vet finds out exactly what's ailing your little girl. Stay strong little Tiel.

I took a few moments to record what her behaviour was like before I decided I couldn't watch over her properly and I decided to take her back to the vet.... :( You can see how tired she is...

Here's a second video... I don't know if it'll work, I'm sorry if it links to the same video.
