- 2 Lovebirds: 1 male A. r. roseicollis (Whitefaced Violet Mutation) & 1 female A. r. roseicollis (Green Mutation?)
My female lovebird has been making a weird noise at night occasionally. It sounds like a wet/snotty beak grind. Is this wheezing? I posted a video to youtube--its really quiet so you'll have to turn your volume up high.

I was very concerned about this about a week ago when she was doing this so loudly at night that it woke me up. When I turned on the light she was tail bobbing while breathing and seemed to be a bit snotty under her nostrils. I spoke to her vet and started her on antibiotics that night. So now she's been on antibiotics for a week and last night made the noise again. Its freaking me out. I'm going to see if I can get her into the bird vet tomorrow but any insight from you would be great.
