hi,

 

im kinda worried because my budgie is sitting on the

ground and is not flying when i go into the avarie

More info on him... what signs of illness is he showing...? fluffly, poppie bum, etc... Is watering getting into the aviary...? It could be many things...

Go get him, pick him up and check for signs of poopy bottom, thin-ness, and if he's thin and poopy...he is sick. Bring him inside and put a warm lamp by his cage. If he's too thin he may not have been eating.

he is also really fluffy (with his feathers all fluffed up), rain or water only gets in the cage when it rains and it does not rain much around here.

 

he dosnt have a pooey bum though and is very fat :o

fluffy, in any case, means he has a fever. get him in a hospital cage with a heat lamp on him and keep him warm. I think he needs a vet visit to be diagnosed.

thanks for the idea

but mum doesnt let me keep birds inside?

any other opitions? :o

Laundry room, with door close... Shed even if nowhere else with lamp and sheets to cover cage...
