Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Female | unspayed
Yesterday I noticed one of my budgies (she's a female, I've only had her around 2 years and am unsure of age but I think she could be between 3-5) was sitting leaning to one side. I got closer and realised she wasn't movihg one of her feet. She doesn't seem in pain but does seem sleepier than usual but is able to get to her food and water but has a bit of trouble perching. Is there anything I can do for her at hone because I think a vet trip would be stressful?
