Hello everybody,
I am new here in this forum. First of all: sorry for my not so good written english... I am Serbian, from Belgrade, and live in Italy for several years.
It is very nice to see that there is a lot of people that love their parrots and take so much care.
I will shortly present my Sima, the lovebird: he is male, almost 15 years old.
His "wife" died 7 years ago, since she couldn't deliver an egg... Very sad. When that happened he was suffering a lot, but after some time, he got used to be alone, and became very attached to me and my parents. I don't live in that house anymore, and I decided to leave him over there with my parents since he is used to the enterior when he flies arround. And he adors my father
He is a healthy bird, flys a lot and takes a bath from time to time. He eats well, a lots of seeds, vegetables and fruits...
But lately he started acting very strange.
It happens that he falls from the place where he is standing usually. and he dosn-t make it in time to fly up in the air. He just falls down on the floor!
It happened few times, the last time he felt on the table, and then from the table to the floor
and he couldn't step up on his legs! He started turning arround, without being able to stand up! Like a turtle, when you put it on it's back. But he is a parrot, he should be much more agile... I know that he is old, but anyway this behavior is very strange I think.
Then after, when you put him on his feet, he becomes normal again. He eats normally and drinks water. This started happening like a month ago. Sometimes he also gets confused while he is flying, and while landing to something, he misses.
Anyone had a simmilar experience?
Thank you!
