My 19 year old eclectus that I’ve only since October, just died today. I am at a total loss, this morning she was waddling around perfectly fine, begging for cheese, and then come the afternoon she seemed to get real sleepy. In hindsight, she became really lethargic and was pretty wobbly on her feet. I went out to buy food for my guinea pigs and when I came back she was dead on the bottom of her cage. My other birds seemed to be fine. I’ve been crying all night, but I plan to take her in to the vet to get a necropsy when they open on Monday and after that I plan on cremating her. But has anyone heard of this happening before? I also checked her weight after she had passed and she was 443g, which was a normal weight for her.
