Okay guys please please help. Ive got my budgie today and a while ago he pooped fine. Now i was checking on him/her and i saw his tail a bit up so i checked his vent and he was pooing! Awhile after his tail was still up and it seems he cant pass his poo or its stuck to his vent. It looks normal and its not runny or dry. I cant take him out rn since its night and number 2 hes not exactly fully hand tamed. Hell let me have a gentle hold of him but not exactly tame. Please please help guys! What should i do? Cant go to a vet because none are near rn and none are open at this time!

When was the last time he had a drink? I've noticed this once with one of my lovebirds, who had been napping on me. I took her to get some water after I removed the poop from her backside and she was fine after that.

Is he dehydrated? Can you get him to drink or eat watery food? Like romaine lettuce or apples, spinach? If you can, clean his butt with warm water and kind of " massage" it at the same time. Hope he's OK!

The reason it's dry and sticky is because of a seed diet. He is lacking in fresh food and water. Just work on feeding him better and it should improve.

So how are you going to handle wellness and emergencies since you are far from an avian vet?
