The other day a cracker fell out from under his wing. Here is a video him putting food on his head. Any idea why he started doing this.

I just got back from the vet and Lucy, my lovebird, was put on Baytril for strep. She's always kept away from the other birds that I train, but she is in the same room as my Goffins Cockatoo, Kai. I'm trying to remember if strep can be passed between birds easily or not. They never play together (they don't get along) but Kai does sometimes jump on and chew on Lucy's cage just because she knows it annoys me. I probably will just end up getting medication for Kai, too, but do you think it's necessary? I don't want to hurt Kai, but the vet bills for her will be another $130 (cost isn't a problem, but it's still a lot of money and I don't have a huge bank account)

My sisters birds were recently diagnosed with a possible respiratory infection. She took 1 to the vet as he was sitting at the bottom of the cage just not looking right.The vet checked him and noted the roof of his mouth was very red which most likely means a URI. He was also closing 1 eye on the side that seemed inflammed.The vet advised it would be a good idea to bring in the cagemate to this bird as this infection is contagious and she had exhibited similar signs(closing 1 eye) about a month ago. She now has brought in 2 more birds who also seem to have this infection. She has 12 birds in all. I suggested that she bring them all in for testing as to not keep this virus spreading around. My question is how did they get it?
She dosent take them anywhere and dosent attend any bird shows. The only thing I can think of is that she dosent spray them enough and maybe their sinus's got clogged? She would like to avoid this happening again.Anyone have any ideas; what worked for you ? Thanks

ive had my budgie for 4 days now. i dont know if its a boy or girl but i figure its a boy because its easy to train. it took me a day to finger train him. however sometimes when hes on my finger or when im talking to him he start shaking, acually its more like vibrating, is that bad? or is he just scared or nervous? also hes only made about 4 sounds since ive had him. i have 2 zebra finches that are chatty though. why isnt my budgie singing as well?

How will I know if my parakeets are mating? It may be a silly question, but is there anything out of the ordinary that they do? I don't have a nesting box. They have been on the bottom of the cage and one on top of the other. It's quite a show. Also, if they are mating and become pregnant, how long does it take?

I know that most parrots do make some noise, but is there a scale of loudness when comparing one type of parrot to another? Also, would having two birds encourage more chatter or would a lone bird be also as vocal because it is lacking fellow bird companionship?
