    Help! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Well first of all what breed is she, how old is she, have you checked her for mites, and is it possible that someone else in her flock plucked her?

    Chicken found at a gas station

    Gently feel around her crop area how does it feel? is it hard or soft? airy like a balloon or lumpy?

    Chicken found at a gas station

    What kind of feed is she on? If you have any pics of poop they can be very helpful in identifying if something is wrong or not. Does she get up and wonder around at all?

    Ok, so he still will not take the pellets so I am going to try a different brand. Also, I guess Cielo has decided that my hands are devil spawn...I don't know what happened, but he went from hesitantly stepping onto my finger for a treat, to shrinking away from me every time my hand is in the...

    I’ll look I to the Rhoudybush one also. He is SO CUTE right now! I got him some natural perches and he loves to rub his face all up and down them! If I stop responding it is because I died of cuteness! :th

    That is a good thought I’ll add it to my list of things to give him. I’ll have to see if I can find some that is like organic or something… doesn’t regular have like sugar, preservatives, and other stuff? I don’t actually know. Thank you for that.

    You said that you used Harrisons brand right? I looked that up yesterday it was pretty expensive, but that is to be expected with a high-quality brand. I couldn't find which one of their products was specifically for budgies. Which product do you use?

    Ok! Wow thanks for all of those posts guys! I am going to try to soak the pellets tomorrow and see if he will eat them. If not I think I'll give what @ilikepigeons said a try. Give the pellets in the morning and then provide seeds a little later. He normally gets up around 6:00 with me so if I...

    Thank you for all of that info! I’ll look into some different brands and I’ll keep working on convincing him to eat some veggies! Cielo is definitely a seed junky! Do you have any tips that I could try to get him off seeds and on to pellets? I am going to try soaking them on Friday see if he’ll...

    Interesting... I will have to give that a try. Maybe he will be more interested in them that way. :fl

    The pellets that I have are zupreem brand which seems to be a pretty good brand (as far as I can tel). He refuses to touch them though. :rolleyes: @Poultrybonkers mentioned that they soak their pellets? Maybe he would give them a try if they were moist? This morning I gave him just pellets for a...

    Your birds are so pretty! I do have a water dish in Cielo's cage for bathing. I put fresh water in it multiple times a day, but he has yet to show any interest in it. he pretty much ignores it. Sometimes he will sit on it and on occasion he will drink from it. There currently is a little over a...

    Interesting! Thank you for bringing this to my attention. My bird's feathers are clipped because I got him from a pet store, but I do not plan on clipping them again once they grow out. Maybe I should allow him the seeds and work on convincing him to eat some fruits and veggies along with the...

    Thank you for your concern! See that is what I thought at first too, but while wild budgies are naturally seed eaters they also often fly around 200-300 miles in a couple of days. Seeds are very high in fat which in a wild budgies case would give them the energy to fly for hours on end, but for...

    That is a good idea. I could try giving him pellets first thing in the morning when he is most hungry then provide him with seeds a bit later. So then he won't starve to death from stubbornness, but maybe he will be more willing to try the pellets if he is a bit hungry. I'll give it a go...
