I have a budgie which is egg bound. There is an egg shaped, egg sixed protrusion distended from her abdomen. Today I took her to the vet who undertook an x-ray and came back saying that because there is nothing showing on the x ray then the problem is not an egg but instead is constipation. Please bear in mind that I am in Thailand. This is not an excuse for bad vetrenary practice but standards are not what they are in the west. I am not a vet but my bird appears to be pooing ok. I want to know what I can do.
Our pet amazon parrot Emerald and dog have been been living together for years in harmony until recently. My parrot now started to attack and chase our dog who is well trained and tolerant of our pet bird. However, we are concerned of him snapping at the bird one day if the abuse continues. Emerald climbs down off her cage to try to bite him and to chase him out of the room. She also does this to other family members or visitors. She never did that before. She seems to be jealous. She will even come after me if I stop her from attacking others.
