Having a rough day!

Hi All
I have 2 budgies...one is acting like she's sick and has me VERY NERVOUS! I cant tell for sure. She is fluffed up but then she's a silly girl and eats any crap in her cage

I hope she gets well soon.....I dont want to leave the house with her feeling down.

make sure shes warm, when they get sick it very imporatnt to keep them warm. And covered to heal.
It takes alot out of budgies since they have no body fat and when they get a draft or shiver u know they're sick. Keep and eye on her. heres the link iused before. Some use low watt heat lamps. But i nevr had one. so far so good theyre never sick. and If i think theyre cold and it is here in PEI, im put 2 blakets on them at night.

Hey Thanks. I do put a sheet and blanket on them at night. During the day they sit in a 6 foot cage and at night they go into a smaller cage and sleep upstairs where its warmer.

She is eating and singing. But just sitting funny. She has never had any eggs...so I dont know. I just put an empty container in the cage JUST INCASE......
