This morning I noticed my female budgie (1 yr old) had a dirty bottom. Besides this, she seemed fine and has been eating normally, flying and playing. I used a wet cloth to gently wipe the mess off and it hasn't returned.
I phoned our avian vet- its a bit tricky with
Covid19 but the AV wants me to bring her in so I've got an appointment first thing tomorrow. Hopefully everything is fine!
Obviously I know that you guys can't give medical advice, just asking more for reassurance in the meantime before our appointment. Is this likely to be minor as the dirty bottom didn't come back?
Charlie is a seed monster so I don't know if this is the cause. I changed brands recently because my normal store is closed because of the virus. She does have lots of veggies and some fruit (although she destroys it, a lot ends up on the floor). Pellets are a hard no for both of my little munchkins.
Hopefully its easily fixed! I will ask the AV for some diet advice.
