My female budgie currently started drinking tons of water for no reason. Only have her, no males. Vet is closed due to Corona and need help trying to find the problem. I'll send a pic of her poop soon.​

Drinking excessively is a symptom of diabetes. Only a vet can perform the necessary tests and make a diagnosis.

Many vets are open in the US and are just changing to curbside service.

All vets are open here in Aus but procedures have changed some depending on the clinic and the pet being vetted. Worth a call to the vet clinic to see if they are indeed open.

OK, I'll try and see if a vet is open, even if it's for like 5 hours of something
