In the video, it looks like her belly is full of fluid. Here is one that was full of fluid:

what should i do for that?

While we wait on the video, can you feel her crop to see if it is empty, full, hard, soft, or puffy? Can you get her to drink some water from a small cup held up to her beak? Add electrolytes if you have them. She looks to be molting. How are her poops? Have you seen any symptoms such as watery eyes, nasal drainage, or sneezing? Is she making a high pitched wheezing sound?

her crop feels soft, i can feel the food in in, her eyes are bubbly. i’m trying to get her to drink some water with antibiotics and electrolytes but she won’t swallow, i’ve rubbed her throat to try to get her to, i don’t want to force it down because i don’t want to go go in her lungs, i’m using a dropper. her poops are pretty normal, she pooped 3 times and the first one was normal but the other two were alittle watery. she is wheezing. should i find a vet? we don’t have one near us but i know there is one about an hour away. can i treat her at home or does she need a vet?

Does her belly feel like it might be swollen?

If you can afford a vet that would be best.

her belly seems fine, she’s calmed down, she stops wheezing when she lays down. i let her run around in the grass because she wanted to. she seems to be feeling better already, she will be getting more antibiotics tomorrow. hopefully i can take her to the vet too. thanks so much for the help, will keep you updated!

She is soooooo pretty!
Bubbly eyes? Isn’t that a hallmark of MG? @Wyorp Rock @azygous I think MG can be treated with antibiotics, but don’t know the details.
