Hello everyone. I am writing this balling my eyes out, peaches has passed away. This morning i woke up to her cage quiet, so I assumed she was sleeping in. It was too quiet to I took off her cage cover and she way lying at the bottom of her cage. I knew she was dead when I saw her little body. She is currently wrapped up in a blanket in a little basket. I have no clue how she passed. Yesterday I noticed her droppings looking a bit different and her wings e very tiny bit droopy, barely noticable. We were planning on taking her for her first checkup this week. I feel so stupid for not taking her earlier and i feel like its my fault she died. I only had her for 18 days but i loved her so much. She was so sweet from the day i got her. I saw her grow from a tiny baby for three months. She never even got to grow her feathers out and fly like a normal bird. I was so proud of her because she actuallyy had a few new feathers growing in. It tears me apart that she died alone in her cage. My room is just too quiet. Also, I dont exactly know how to find out how she died, do i take her to an avian veteranarian? Also, im sorry for the typos, my hands are pretty shaky.

I’m so sorry. Call your avian vet to see if they can do a necropsy. They will advise you.

I'm so sorry. Try not to blame yourself - birds are built to hide their illnesses and frailties, and we often can't tell they're sick until it's too late. You're not the first person who has had this terrible experience.

We did, they said they were very sorry.
That's all they said? I would think they would be much more concerned. Are they going to reimburse you?
