Hi there and thanks for allowing me to join. I am very new to keeping finches and canaries only had them two weeks. I have 1 pair of Zebra Finches and a pair off canaries and a pair off Society Finches. One of the Society Finches has been quiet since I bought him and sits fluffed up on the same perch. Yesterday I could not find him then discovered him on the floor behind a box. He seems to have a problem standing and has his wings spread when moving about. Anyone know what is wrong with him ?? I have separated him from the rest of the birds.

If he is still alive, make sure he gets extra warmth...
And have food and water easily accessible.

Yeah I’ve done that but he is looking like he won’t last much longer

All I can suggest is get him to an avian vet.
