it looks so pale (in a bird way) and sleepy, he doesn't chirp as much as he usually does, and his chest area looks "skinny".
he doesn't sneeze, but usually sleeps even in the day! can someone help me what should i do to make him feel better??
Answers:
My lovebird has a very skinny breast bone area and he will sleep ( nap) 4 and 5 times a day..He is also very quiet but he always has been.
Do his poops look normal??
Is he eating/
Where does he sleep..on a perch or on the bottom of his cage?
Cover his cage to keep nighttme drafts off him.
And first thing in the morning call your Avian vet.
Birds are slow to show illness and slow to respond to treatment.
If you think there might be a problem, you need to get to a vet as soon as you can. Only fast treatment will save the bird.
Sorry, I could be any number of things, I don't know for sure.
He looks skinny probably because he's not eating which can be a sign of almost anything. There's not much you can do to make him more comfortable except make sure he is nice and warm. He needs to go to the vet right away.
How old is the lovebird?If he is a baby still he needs to be hand fed or he could die he needs to be warm also.
I would take hime to the vet. How long has this been happening? Is he eating anything? It could be mites or some kind of parasite. To check for mites, you can put a white sheet over the cage at night instead of whatever you do put over it and in the morning if there are red spots, then your bird has mites. Your best bet would be to get him checked out by a vet.
