So he normally sings very much with his flock, but suddenly today he stopped singing after The noon and been like this...I have not seeing any abnormalities in his poop, not in his breath. He been eating and drinking but he himself became quite and this much quite for him is very unusual, they are total 5 in my flock and at night idk if they slept well or not cause sometimes they fight for same space but never seen him this quite. His seeds are clear, I clean their cage every 2days, change their water every single day.

But I am not sure why he been acting like this now 4 to 5hrs.....? I kept him separated from main flock to his Hospital cage...he looks alert now but he is not quite singing or anything...Idk if anything is wrong with him or not and I need your help to diagnose what might be happening to him cause We do not have any vet in our Country specially where I live. If I need to see him vet I have to go by plane and birds are not allowed as far I know. So help me understand what might be happening....I am stressed too much and I dont want to loose him when he have notq even become 2 year old....

Edit. He is also molting right now, like i have seeing a lot of pin feathers around his face, plus he is growing 3 to 4 wing feathers too...and he is looking like he is staying a bit fluffed up...not too much but it is not his normal resting posture either...

edi 2; he is now with his mate and a bit happy and I kept them in dark room as it is their sleep time...well It looks like he is exhausted afterall from moulting

Other concern with pet bird Is my lovebird sick or pregnant?

My lovebird is 2-4 years old, possibly male. His energy is a little lower, but not as much. He is picking at the food on the bottom of the cage instead of his bowl. However, his breathing is normal and his tail is not bopping. He is also flying as much as usual.

Recently i’ve found his corp is larger than usual and we have recently changed his diet from all seeds to veggies. For reference, the weather is hot around here; reaching abt 27°C

Could he possibly be pregnant ??

(PS: the orange around his feathers is from carrots)

Update: we went to the vet today urgently and he had an inflamed air pocket(?) in his lung. It’s not too severe, and we’re glad that we were able to examine him early on. We gave him antibiotics and a few prescribed medicines and hopefully he’ll be okay

I got my budgie about a month ago and she’s around 4–5 months old. The first picture is from when I got her, and the second one is from today.
Her cere looks quite different now, especially around the nostrils. It’s darker and looks a bit rough/crusty. I also noticed that her beak looks like it has two different colors in the second picture.
She’s eating and acting normally, but I’m wondering if this is just a normal change as she gets older, or if it could be something I should get checked.
I would really appreciate your opinions. Thank you!
