My Bird Shakes and Has Diarrhea

User Question
Hello! I have 4 budgies. One of them is sick and i don't know what to do to her. She shakes very badly and she has diareea and also she sleeps most of the times. It happened the same to my friend's budgie and she took him to the hospital but the doctor said he probably eat a plant or somethig there is nothing to do to him. So can you please suggest what i should do ?

Lisa's Answer
Take her to a vet!! Always, always take your bird to a vet when it is sick like that. I am pretty sure I say on my question page not to ask me about sick birds, to always go right to a vet! A real vet would never say "the keet probably ate a plant, I can't help it". Ask at your pet store for the name of a reputable vet that can help.
