  1. Hi, I just wanted to add a post to help other owners. My male budgie aged 2.5 years has a paralysed leg. Took him to the vet and it’s probably testicular cancer although it could be kidney cancer. Treatment if it’s testicular cancer is around $400 including diagnosing him with an x-ray. Treatment is an implant that would probably extend his life by 12 months. I’m in two minds about treatment. His quality of life is pretty poor right now and if the treatment didn’t improve this then it would be cruel to keep him alive for another year.
  2. My little budgie has recently lost the use of one of his legs. We took him to the vet and they think it is testicular cancer. His cere is bright blue though. He is only 2 1/2 years old and he is getting very weak. The vet has suggested the hormone implant, they think it will extend his life by around 12 months but he is such a small bird they also said the failure rate is high and he may pass during the anaesthesia. I was wondering if anyone who has tried the implant can give me feedback about what they have experienced. Thanks
