One of our two parakeets is not acting normal. She always is lively, singing and screaming. The rest of the time she just grooms herself or is drinking and eating. Sometimes she takes naps but she fluffs up and/or puts her head back. In the video, she is shivering slightly keeping her eyes mostly closed and overall seems very tired. Is something wrong with her? What should I do?

Here is the video:

The most important thing to do when you're concerned is consult with a CAV. That's just about all you need to do to find out what's wrong with the bird.

As stated so very well about, your parakeets needs to see its Avian Medical Professional and soon!
In your video your parakeets also seems to be moving with every breath, this is commonly known as Tail Pumping, which is an indication of difficulty breathing, which only supports the need to see your parakeets Medical Professional.
