Hi everyone,
I just feel like I need a bit of closure on this. My baby lovebird died on Sunday and we're all devastated about this. What we don't understand is that it's very sudden. He was all happy and chirpy and playful. Then half an hour later, we found him at the bottom of his cage, unresponsive. I don't know what we did wrong, or where it went wrong. My in-laws are devastated over this because they were bird sitting for the weekend. I would be grateful if anyone can shed some light on this issue.
The baby bird is getting all the love and attention from everyone. We got him around 6-7 weeks old and we had him for about 2 weeks (so that makes him approximately 8-9 weeks old). We let him out of his cage daily so he gets his exercise. When he's out of his cage, he is carefully monitored. He was eating a a lot, and I thought maybe he's a growing boy so he has to get all the energy he needs. As I mentioned before, my in-laws was bird sitting. They didn't cook during the weekend and they don't have any air purifier/incense around. The baby bird stayed with them before and he was fine. The apartment is climate controlled and they kept the cage in their room. My thought is that maybe it's a new environment for the baby bird and he's not used to it. Or maybe some seeds got stuck in his trachea when he woke up to eat.
My Baby:
This is 藍藍 (Stands for Blue in Chinese), also known as The Boy, The Captain, Morgan, and Poop Master. He was loved by all. He loved cuddles and head rubs until he falls asleep, and would wake up and give you a sleepy stare when you stop. He loved to explore anything and everything. He loved jumping from high places and climbing, especially climbing up and sitting on top of your head to get a nice view of the room (hence, the Captian Morgan name). He loved his food and would wake up to get a small munchie in before falling back asleep.
