My around 1 year old male coturnix quail has been limping.
i first saw that he was sitting down which he dosent do often.
he lies a bit on his side
he cant walk, but he can fly normally. When he tries to walk, he limps and flaps his wings to balance himself but after 2 seconds just sits down again on the spot.
he was completely fine yesterday.
His poop was stuck to his feathers around his vent
the poop was like yellowish, had white gooey liquid and was liquid.
he felt soft. Like his stomach felt a bit softer than usual.
He isnt in a coop, he just lives with his mate
his mate keeps stepping on him, which angers him enough to grab onto her feathers (to try to mate? idk)
he cant mate tho.
hes ACTING normal. (being his sassy self)
Should i do anything? he wont move unless i push him
also he wouldnt eat his fav food - lettuce
he only ate some raw rice since he wont eat his grains
edit: He is half standing up right now. And he TRIES to eat his grains. Still trying to mmate but cant.
