I have a 8 month old tiel that is around 122g. Since I last weighed him I cut down how often I am feeding him thinking that may be the issue. He is very hyper hence why I started feeding him more but the fact that he weighs so much is making me nervous. The last time he saw the vet he was 4 months old (he had a respiratory infection caused by a Vitamin A deficiency) and the vet weighed him and didn't say anything was wrong with it. I have noticed he tends to drink a lot of water; about 6 to 7 sips at a time about 4 times a day (not sure if that has anything to do with it but doesn't hurt to mention it). I've also noticed he hides food in his toys to snack on . I've always called him 'my lil piggie' because he's always eating. Should I be concerned to the point I should get him to a vet asap or wait and see if cutting down on so many feeding works first?
