A visit to a certified avian vet is your immediate action. Parrots only show signs of sickness or disease when they are already REALLY sick. Vet... ASAP.

Put her in a smaller cage with a heat source(such as a bird safe heater or a bottle with hot water in). It's not a treatment for her illness but will at least help her a bit..

Warmth is crucial for ill birds. If it is warm in your area, it is not necessary to give a heat source.
It is best to put an ill bird in a small cage to limit movement.

I hope that sky gets better soon, prayers!

The advice given above is spot on.

I've asked for more details, to be able to offer anything more.

I'm very sad, to hear you have a sick one and are unable to provide veterinarian care.

The basics of added warmth, tempting food, a quiet stress free environment , are nearly the limits of what any of us can offer.

I'm in the middle of something right now. But I will check back in, for the more details and pictures. And do my very best to offer ideas and help.

Sky, we want you better!!!

Molting puts extra stress on a bird, and often if there are underlying health issues they were keeping in check , they flair up during a molt.

Those are abnormal poor girl...darn it...

Do you know her normal weight?

Can she have an egg?

The fecal is still formed in the first so not full on diarrhea ...but to much urine wetness.
I'm going to look fir a couple of causes

Any other symptoms? Still eating?

You checked seeds and food fir any signs of spoiling?

Any symptoms in your others?

Sure, to Clear up
Any chance she is making eggs/carrying eggs?

Checking your bags or containers of burds feed for spoiled, I know you change the actual food bowls. If had bags of seed mix that spolied, before I got them must have bern exposed to moisture. So its just good to check them .

Fecal is a term for the solid waste part of the bird poop.

This is one if the things I think of in budgies

One of the most common causes of gastrointestinal disease in budgerigars is Mega bacteria also called avian gastric yeast. This fungal microorganism can be found in clinically healthy budgerigars also. Stressors, such as , bullying, poor cage layout, cold, poor nutrition, breeding, molting, poor hygiene, and change of owner- ship can contribute to the onset of the megabacteria associated disease as seen by the bird vets.

Here is more on it.....not saying how likely this can be or if this is even anything you need to worry about.

But budgies eating like really hungry, with off droppings make me think of it....not a lot of experiences with this type if issue myself ...if yours had would be more of a chronic thing...and nothing but a veterinarian could determine and help with.
