What To Do If The Bird Stays Bristled Up

Your budgies has been bristled up for several days, shivers, its beaks grows and curves.....  The reason for your budgie's problem is the lack of vitamins and minerals.  As a beginning take it to the vet to cut the growths and to file away the curved beak. Don't try to do this yourself - it should be executed by a specialist.

The next step is to buy a crayon with vitamins and minerals for it from the zoo shop. You also have to provide pine-tree twigs for it to gnaw. When there is no crayon you can replace it with chalk. It is absolutely necessary for the birds.

However you have to estimate whether the bristling up and the shivering comes because of having a cold. This can be estimated when examining its fecals. If the bird has a cold it will be either very dark or very light than normal. If these symptoms exist you should apply the following treatment:

Take one capsule tetraulean / from the drugstore. Open it. Take some powder from the capsule on the point of a small knife. Dissolve this very small dose into 1-2 drops of water. After that open the beak and pour the liquid carefully inside with a dropper.

The treatment should be applied for 3 days most. After that the faecals will obtain their normal color.

Be careful not to overdose the tetraulean.

Except for that even if the parrot has no cold you should buy vitamins for it from the zoo shop. Another reason for this condition of the feathery creature can be starvation because with a deformed beak it is most probable that the bird can't eat millet. And only vegetables and fruit is not enough.

Give bread to your budgies as they like it a lot.

Do not keep them in a very cold or very hot place. Let the temperature be normal. Budgies don't like humidity and draughts. This could also be a reason for deformations. And if it is possible let them fly at least a little.

***ANY REMEDIES PURPOSED HERE SHOULD BE EXAMINED CAREFULLY AND YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR VET IF YOU ARE UNSURE FOR ANY REASON***
