Hello
I bought a new blue Quaker just yesterday night. He/she is 3-4 months old, unweaned. He is pooping diarrhea (maybe bcuz of hand feeding formula), is sleepy most of today (slept late 2 am and woke up at around 10:30; so only 8 hrs of sleep), wing started to slightly droop, kinda fell not completely but a bit of a stumble? on the perch, posture was bad for a while, sort of a horizontal way, noticed he sometimes opens his mouth just slightly maybe bcuz he has trouble breathing, and he poops lesser than yesterday.
The problem is, I don?t know his usual behavior, do birds of 3-4 months of age perch well(his last owner gave us a box with bedding on the bottom so I suppose he hasn?t been in a cage)? He can fly pretty good tho. Is he sleepy bcuz of the lack of sleep? How much of these symptoms are because of a new environment? Should I wait for tomorrow so he might get better bcuz he?s more used in his surroundings? He pooped vEry often yesterday so is it bad that he?s pooping less or good? He?s preening himself rn he looks more energetic but he?s been clumsy on the perch. His body seems so close to the perch sometimes. I?m obviously worried and I need advice.
After I said he seems more energetic he went into sleep mode for a few seconds and now is back to preening. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0V9Of_oOOz3FS_axqA0bk596g#Jeddah_-_Al_Hamra[/IMG]
