(NOT AS IF IN LIKE OUT OF HIS SKIN , BUT IT IS REALLY SHARP AND HARD TO TOUCH)
I am sorry if this isnt the right threat , this is my first attempt at using a forum and I am really worried about my budgie's health and my anxiety attack is not helping me in the slightest .
I will be taking him to a vet if it is anormal but I couldnt really find anything on internet ..? But he seems energetic and happy as always .
Not the keel bone's itself (Might be any other bone or something else but my guess is keel bone(apex carinae)) I know if its prominent and sharp it means the bird is underweight and might be ill . But the keel bone as a whole is normal , not sharp , not sticking out , just the top edge of it ; it is unusually prominent and sharp in my opinion ? ONLY the top edge , and I dont think it was like this before at all . And I had another budgie(Cingöz) before this , I had him for 5 years and he didnt have this bone being this prominent . Thats why it is making me worried .
Çimen is a around 8 months old , used to human touch and really energetic . He plays and eats , so I wasnt that worried about it . *However last night around 5 am he was coughing i think? (I was studying and wasnt asleep so the noise he wad making wasnt loud at all) I couldnt really understand what he was doing , but think something like the movement of of a budgie puking, but does it only once and stops ?
He isnt doing that at the moment anymore , stopped doing it around 12 pm which was when I woke up . I got up and checked its chest to see if it had a lump or anything , upon really close inspection I felt the "keel bone" , and it alerted me .
Before noticing "the prominent thing" was actually his 'keel bone' I thought he had something stuck in his i dont know,,, throat or something for a second..? But I am really sure its his keel bone now . He did crash agaisnt some walls and windows when he was first learning to fly around the house but didnt seem injured or shaken at all after that ? I am really confused .
He is on a seed diet but I am really trying to feed him boiled eggs and some vegetables/fruits etc. He isnt really loving it but I will keep trying because I know it is the healthy way.
In summary ;
-Only the upper EDGE of 'keel bone' is really prominent , not the whole bone
-seed diet
-8 months old
-sort of coughing (?)*
Please tell me im the comments(?) if it means something is wrong because I am really confused ..?? I have never came agaisnt something like this before. And I have my university entry exams this week , a really stresfull week is ahead of me , so if something is wrong I need to re-schedule my week around to take him to a vet , so PLEASE tell me if you know something
I am already anxious about tons of personal things happenning around me and with the addition of this topic I cant even breath properly because of my anxiety attacks anymore...
