It is not letting me post the video for some reason is there anywhere else I can contact you to send it? And here’s the picture of the poop

I am unable to see any solids in the picture. Is the bird only producing droppings consisting of liquids? I have provided information earlier in the thread, I hope you follow some of that advice.

Poor thing. I wish you the best . Why so many mealworms in the dish,? I thought they were just treats and to be given out sparingly and not free graze ?

Good point. I didn't watch the video long enough to see the mealworm dish.

Not sure if that has anything to do with the seizer or not, I am guessing not. I just never seen mealworns feed like that before.

I am unfamiliar with the exact nutritional specifications of mealworms, but doubt the mealworms are sufficient to satisfy all the bird's nutritional needs. Seizures are often seen in birds fed nutritionally incorrect diets, most predominantly the Psittaciformes genus. I am more talking to the OP here, but if the bird is only being fed mealworms, a diet switch over to something like Mazuri, or a duckling/chick starter would be recommended. As already mentioned, broad supplementation of vitamins in the form of a poultry vitamin/ or Poly-vi-sol may be advised too.
