Why is my baby sparrow lethargic, can't stand, and has watery poop?

I'm sorry Pocoyo is ill. If it is possible he may nee to see a veterinarian. If not possible, i would quarentine him away from other birds. Keep in a warm, draft free area and try to encourage eating. Here's a bit more info on nursing care. https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/sick-pet-birds-nursing-care Best of luck. Thanks for using PetCoach.

Thanks for reaching out Lemon and including photos. Don't think has to do with the fan trauma one year ago. Being weak and lethargic, are only general signs of illness and are not specific for any particular problem. It is often difficult to differentiate between loose stool and polyuria (increased urine), as they often pass both at the same time. This must be examined as the birds passes a bowel movement to identify well formed feces. A loose stool can be the result of an intestinal infection, liver disease, ingested foreign body (particle, toxin, other) and more. Increased urination can be due to increased water intake (behavioral, kidney or liver disease, diabetes (rare), environmental stresses (heat, breeding season, change in diet). Providing supplemental heat in the 80-85 F range, 24/7 can sometimes support the immune system. If the weakness continues, a veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Good luck.

It's possible the bird may be injured or ill. If he still doesn't recover, even after eating and drinking and resting some, it is a good idea to contact a local wildlife rehab in your area. They may be able to come get the bird (or have you bring him to them) so he can be examined, treated for any issues, and safely re-released.

Submit a sample of Lola's droppings to your veterinarian. This may diagnose intestinal parasites or bacterial overgrowth. Since she is showing other symptoms, an exam with your veterinarian would be strongly recommended. Birds are very good at hiding illness until it is quite serious. Blood work can assess liver and kidney function after a physical exam. Supportive care may also be indicated. This may include subcutaneous fluids, antibiotics and a special diet.

Thanks for reaching out. Yellow stool is not normal and can be an indication of an intestinal infection, intestinal parasites, liver disease and other problems. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. The birds should be separated prior to your veterinary visit, so you can monitor appetite. Providing heat support in the 80-85 F range can give some aid. Good luck.

Thanks for reaching out about BirDee. The increased apple could lead to more urine or a diarrhea. The sugar content could encourage abnormal bacterial overgrowth, requiring antibiotics to treat. A diet in mostly mealworms could lead to multiple deficiencies. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Good luck.

If Sky's behavior has changed recently, and you are are also noticing a change in stool consistency without a change in diet or environment, then having him examined by your vet is a good idea. Some environmental changes, such as extreme heat may cause a bird to be more lethargic until it cools down, however they should still otherwise be eating, drinking and moving about some. Diet changes can also change the color or consistency of stool if there are colored pellets or different seeds introduced. It may be that he is still mourning the loss of his friend, and so is less active, however being completely uninterested in activities, having a change in stool without a diet change, or sleeping all the time are not considered normal.
