Conure Possibly Pregnant

We are sitting at the emergency vet. Kiwi was puking this morning. It’s the first time I’ve seen a parrot puke, and not regurgitate like Nico my Ekkie. She wasn’t moving around anymore even for food. She can still perch. She wasn’t eating or drinking anymore either. The vet has her in an incubator waiting to be seen.
Oh @kme3388 I'm so sorry to hear of this development! Big hugs for you and prayers for Kiwi, I hope she pulls through!! 🙏 🙏 🙏
 
Kiwi's situation should remind all of us that if our birds are not acting like their usual selves they could very well be sick and we need to get them to a qualified avian vet (or the most qualified vet you can find) ASAP. No waiting more than a couple days to see if they get get better. A bird has to be pretty sick to refuse its favorite activities, foods and toys. A bird can lose a lot of weight before it's noticeable, and many pet birds don't let you feel their bodies to see if they've gotten bony so weigh your bird periodically. Amazon sells small gram scale for birds, complete with a perch, for as little as $35.
 

This is her after she was sedated for labs. She was still out of it. My husband called tonight they told us no news is good news tonight. Hopefully she pulls through. They started her on some sort of gastric med. They want to hold off on antibiotics until the labs come back either tomorrow afternoon, or Saturday. The vet told my husband tonight she’s at least reacting to people entering the room. She wasn’t doing that this morning, and she can’t fly today (too weak). Yesterday she could still fly. Lastly they have been able to get her to eat, but she isn’t drinking so they had to give her fluids.

Oh the poor darling! Hang in there, little sweetheart, and you and your hubby too @kme3388, we're all praying for you! 🙏 🙏 🙏
