    When my Cockatiel was diagnosed with lung cancer he had a hard time breathing, but his beak was not open. He was breathing so hard that he was rocking. The Vet thought it was strange that his beak was not open. He still preened himself. He did not want to eat though. He was very weak so I had to carry him in my hands. He did not want to be in a cage, he only wanted to be with me. He sat with me for the last three days and he slept with us in a travel cage lined with a soft blanket because he wanted to be close with us. When we had him euthanized the Vet said that he would have only had a couple days left. That was 5 months ago. We are still heart broken.

    This is an awesome video on sick bird care, Donna! You touched on all the major points, and I love your simplicity and affordability of your bird hospital set up. I prefer to use heating pads versus thermal heat lamps. However, I can’t find pet heating pads that stay on for more than two hours. If I use the heat lamps, I have to be careful not to over heat the bird it’s hard to monitor them if one Hass to be away from home for an extended period such as when one goes to work, another item I use in my bird hospital is a cool mist humidifier, I put it next to the the cage or aquarium to provide humidity and prevent dehydration.

    Hi Donna! Another informative video. The demonstrations of hospital cages and carriers taught me some new things, like providing a darkened area for the bird to rest. I'm glad you showed the plastic critter keeper. They are all sizes, colors, lightweight and see through, really convenient and easy to clean. Mine gets used to catch bugs and lizards that get in the house that I can't catch in my hands and then open a door to put them outside. Life in Florida will provide interesting wildlife visitors in your house. Kingsley enjoyed being the star of the show and he sure enjoys your long hair! Thanks for putting out this information as I think new bird owners and even those of us who have had birds for 30 years or more all learned something from this video.

      Thanks, Donna for the information on bird's being sick. I have a Conure I've had her since she was six weeks old and that was in 2014. She can talk ,dance, cry and fuss at me when she's feeling good. But for the past three nights I haven't slept cause she's been crying when I leave her, & 0range Blossoms (cockatiels)( Pineapple)is the conure when I leave them Pineapple will cry and say come here I used to fall for that but when I get back to her,she would laugh at me. So now whenever she crying, I wait & listen to her cries but lately they are grinding sound so I don't move. Pineapple won't go into her house ( cage) she rather sleep on my dresser top of it. In the daytime she sleeps on top of the refrigerator underneath two cabinets. Whenever she hears the door she peeps out to see who it is. She lost her toenails on her left foot and it was bleeding when I came back from the hospital. My girl's get mad when I leave them alone and they don't speak to me. Blossoms can say a few words, come here,,mama Pineapple will not talk or listen to me,or obey me .

      I don't know of a Veterinarian for bird's, here in Richmond, Va. They catered to dog,cats. I've called a few places and they are expensive but I will have to sacrifice cause Pineapple and orange Blossoms are my heart's. I'm disabled and I'm in a wheelchair my girl's are keeping me alive and I don't want nothing to happen to them. I am praying that Pineapple holds on until Friday morning then I will take her to a Veterinarian .

      @@wandamccutchen4206 Hi Wanda, I don't know what to say. Been praying for you and your birds all day. One thing to keep on hand is called Qwick Stop (I think that is the spelling). It is a styptic powder with a numbing agent in it to use when a pet is bleeding. It is not uncommon that when you cut a pet's toenails the quick of the nail gets cut and bleeds like crazy, thus the name. It can be used on other places but I have only used it on my dogs' toenails, birds' toenails and one of my birds' beak as I trimmed it too short.
      Donna and the vet can give you better information than I can about what is going on with your birds. Letting them roam free, unsupervised, can lead to bad accidents, escapes and other sadness. It is best that they sleep in the safety of their cages and that they associate their cage as their safe place. Since both of your birds are acting differently than they used to, something maybe going on. My Amazon used to scream in the night. I would run into the bird room with a flashlight and he would laugh, just like your bird is doing. It is parrot humor. He used to also hang upside down from his swing with his wings hanging down, like he was dead, and then would laugh when I rushed over in terror. These birds are much smarter than people realize and they try to become the top of the pecking order in the house and have you be their slave!
      It is good that you are taking Pineapple to the vet because often we can't tell if the bird is sick or is just having a behavioral issue. Better safe than sorry!
      I hope everything turns out ok. I'm sorry to hear that you are unwell and having to deal with the stress and worry. Please let me know how the vet visit goes. I will keep you and your birds in my prayers. Shirley

      Very informative video, we got a young budge that had her wings clipped so the only flying she did is a short flight to the floor. Now after having her for about five months she is wanting to fly. At first she practiced in the cage flapping her wings so not knowing if she could actually fly we decided to leave the cage door open one evening because she is not tame enough to sit on your finger and very Leary of getting close to the open cage door. Well, we found out that she can fly very well, but she does not know how to slow down before hitting a wall. I would hate to see her break her neck before actually learning how to navigate the house safely. How do the birds know not to fly full speed into a wall? I can’t teach her to fly a bit slower and put the breaks on before hitting the wall, so what do we do? I hate to take chances with our bird. So what is the best thing to do because she wants to fly again. She flaps her wings and looks at us as if to say she wants to fly again. We tamed one budge a few years ago and can’t recall that bird flying straight into the walls

    • @ElleAndTheBirds
      @ElleAndTheBirds Před 4 lety +2

      Stan Trim the reason she’s flying into walls is probably because she was clipped too young before learning how to fly. She never got a chance to learn how to slow down or turn at that critical fledging stage. For now I’d say the best thing to do would be lightly clipping her again just to slow her down so she doesn’t hurt herself, until she’s tame enough to sit on your finger. Once she’s tame you should let the feathers grow back and teach her to do small hops to your hand, and slowly increase the distance until she can fly to your hand. It takes time to learn how to fly with skill, so don’t be discouraged if she can’t do it right away.

    • @Loveofpets
      @Loveofpets  Před 4 lety +3

      They will crash and burn the first few times but let them keep trying. That's the only way they will learn. Close your curtains so he does not fly into the window. Place in a bigger room so be can learn to navigate better. He will need to learn to turn, fly up and down and land and to do boomarangs.

    A few days ago I had found a moth and a fecal dropping in my cockatiels water bowl, but I cleaned it out and refilled it with new fresh clean water. The next morning my bird wakes up and regurgitates his food and sat at the bottom of his cage and slept all day. Today he seems strong enough to scream and fly and he still has a good appetite and no change in his fecal droppings but I have not seen him drink any water since he had regurgitated his food.

    This is a good go to video for when one's bird is sick. I have that little green carrier cage and I used it as a hospital cage when my budgie Chicken Nugget was sick. He was very weak & I didn't want him to hurt himself in his big cage. Like you said, it makes a great hospital cage as it's easy to catch them when it's time to medicate them. It's small and can be lined with paper towels to make cleaning easier. Food dishes can be placed low or on the bottom & you can also attach a small water bottle to it (my birds use water bottles). Millet is also good & I put a small preening toy in there for him to snuggle with. A little towel worked to cover it too. Sadly, he passed cuz he was very old for a budgie according to the vet. *sighs* Also sometimes as much as you don't want to lose them, it's a kindness to end their suffering, which I've had to do with very sick birds that despite everything the vet did, they weren't getting better.

    I found your channel by having my conure falling down from a stroke maybe. He is over 55 yrs and I have had him for 50+. He now has been on the bottom of his cage for 2 weeks. He is eating and doing most things normally but can't / won't go up. He has tried once a day, but fails to stay. I moved the perches down so he wouldn't fall so far if he does try. Thank you for all the tips. He loves hearing your voice and your birds.

    Hi! great channel, love your videos. I'd to ask u something about the cockatiel's behaviour. I've a 7 month (probably) male cockatiel who in the last week has started to shake quite violently his foodcontainer before and during eating, he also shakes it and sing some tune(jingle bells in this case). He is also really jealous about its space in the cage and food, if you try to get close while eating he can bite you. Is it normal? could it be sick? He flies regularly in my house, he loves to get some love and to stay on our shoulders/heads but when he eats...he behaves differently. He does his poopoo every 20 minutes, he sings, he crawl, he is very very active

She tail bobs a little im not sure if she was doing that before, but her mouth isnt opened. Its a little colder out here where i live so i think that she might caught a cold. I will try to get her to the vet as soon as i can. Its hard when i try to explain to my parents what is ok and what not with my bird.

    My bird was showing really sick symptoms for the first time so I rushed him to the ER because this was the first time he’s been sick. The closest ER was like an hour away. He had to get surgery because he got an impaction from chewing socks. They had to do surgery on him so I left him at the clinic overnight. They called me in the middle of the day and asked if I wanted them to do surgery. I was upset because I told them to just do the surgery right away. I got him back at night and the surgery went great. We had to give him his antibiotics the next day but right when I got back home he started laying down on his back. He was still breathing and he had a heartbeat so I thought he was just exhausted from the anesthesia. I put him in a warm basket so he could rest easily. When it was time for him to get up his eyes weren’t pooping out like they used to be, his eyelids were half closed, he had no heartbeat, he wasn’t breathing, and he didn’t respond to anything. I knew it was too late. It probably would’ve been too late if I went back to the ER. I let them do a necropsy and it turns out he had a pulmonary embolism after surgery. He was only 3 years old and he was supposed to live a long time after that. He was also my first pet. Worst thing I’ve ever experienced

I noticed the feathers around nostrils were missing and it was sneezing a bunch with small amount of clear water discharge from nose. I took to vet they gave me these drops to put in nostrils. Its been almost 10 days and there is no change. Still eating formula everyday pooping fine. Moving around fine and talking but it's still sneezing. What else could be causing this? I've tried the antibiotic drops from vet. I've tried the doxycycline you mix in water just in case it's chlamydia. But there is no change. Vet said lungs heart and air sac sound great. Was some underweight so been giving more formula throughout day. Breeder I bought from said it was pretty much weaned and was only eating formula once a day. First day here it was eating seeds and other things with formula once a day. Vet told me was not weaned yet. It stopped eating seeds and solid food. Strictly only formula now Vet says that is fine since it's underweight. But I can't for the life of me figure out the sneezing. My other quacker had never had any of these issues. I hate having them separated because it was only reason I wanted another but have to be safe until this is figured out. Anyone with help please let me know. 😞

I’m constantly worried about her but she has never given me a proper fright except that time she threw up flax seeds (never before and never after, haven’t given her anymore flax seeds)
