Why is my parrot not eating and dropping food after chewing?

Thanks for reaching out about Chulbul. A veterinary visit is highly recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Providing heat support for sick animals in the 80-85 F range could help. Offering syringe feeding of a parrot hand-rearing formula could sustain them but a diagnosis needs to be achieve to effectively treat. Good luck.

Thanks for reaching out about Kuku. Loss of phonation and appetite are serious concerns. Diseases such as aspergillosis, metabolic disorders (liver, kidney) and other diseases are possible. A veterinary vista should be scheduled for today. Providing an environment in 80-85 degrees might provide some support but it not a cure. Diagnostics will need to be performed to conclude a diagnosis. Good luck.

If Bruno is unable to keep any food down, is vomiting, and won't eat, it is best to seek care from a local avian veterinarian ASAP. It is possible there is something obstructing the crop, an underlying illness, parasites, infection, or physical deformity that is preventing Bruno from being able to eat properly. A complete exam is needed in person to figure out the cause. If he is housed with any other birds, moving him to a separate hospital cage that is kept warm may help reduce stress, but veterinary care is required to figure out the cause.

Thanks for reaching out about Venus and including a photo. Have you tried offering different foods? Provide heat support might give some comfort. Most sick birds are placed in incubators of 80-85 F. Offing water via a syringe if not drinking. A veterinary visit is recommended to assist with diagnosis and treatment plans. Good luck.

Unfortunately, not eating and being listless are very vague symptoms of illness. Anything from being overheated, to having internal parasites, GI upset, underlying illness, etc can be a potential cause. If they have not eaten anything in several days, it is best to seek veterinary care immediately as by the time birds show symptoms of illness they are usually pretty sick. Until you can get to the vet, separating them into warm hospital cages that are kept in a quiet, dark area with easy access to food and water may help, however seeking veterinary care is needed.

Thanks for reaching out and including a photo. This is not diarrhea but a lack of feces, and only consists of urates, so he is not eating. Providing heat support in the 80-85 F range can give aid. A veterinary visit is needed to provide some diagnostics (radiographs, blood work) to determine a diagnosis and then treatment plan. Start syringe feeding as soon as possible. Good luck.

Thanks for reaching out about your parrot. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess for an upper respiratory infection. This seems like an emergency since not eating. Providing supplemental heat in the 80-85 F might give some comfort but does not replace a veterinary visit. Good luck.
