If you have any reason to believe that an animal in your care is sick, the only advice that PETCRAFT can offer is to immediately consult a veterinarian. : I have a male albino budgie that seems quite healthy. His feathers look great, he grooms himself, eats well. . . etc. The last coupel of days his dropping have seemed to have more liquid in them. Not all the time, proboly 1-2 out of five have liquid with the more solid part of the dropping. I remember reading somewhere that a normal dropping has 3 parts: 2 parts solid (green and white) and one part liquid, does this sound right? Or is the liqued in his droppings a sign that something is wrong? Also, everyonce and a while he will make this TTTFFFSST noise, kinda like a sneeze in sound, but with primarly a closed beak. Ofthen he will do it after ruffling his feathers. It seams kind of like a "well then" responce to something in his evironment (almost complete with flipping of the head, and nose in the air.) Last night he did actually sneeze, twice, right in my face. :) : I'm Definatly a hypocondract, but I am worried that he may be sick. Any input would be appreciated. :) Thanks |
