Hey all, I'm hoping some of you might be able to give me some advice on what to do next.
Here's what's going on.
Yesterday I did something that isn't in our(me and the fids) routine and I gave them boiled eggs for breakfast. This is something that I have done before. That afternoon I noticed that my budgie, Buggy was sleeping more than normal. Later I checked on him to find him resting on the bottom of his cage. :eek:
By this time the vet had closed, so I decided to wait until today to make a decision.
I had to make supper for the family, so I set up a video camera so that I could review it later to see what Buggy had been doing. I checked him again and he was vomiting :S
He vomited at least three different times. By now I'm thinking the world is coming to an end, but popped in a new mem card for the camera and continued to make supper. The second video was much different. In the first he was pretty listless and poofy, but he seemed to feel better after throwing up (he also had VERY watery droppings)
In the second vid he moved around a lot and sand and ate a little bit and I was pretty happy, thinking that maybe he got the it out of his system.
Cut to today, and he's doing pretty good, but he's still not quite normal. I caught him resting on the bottom again and he's sleepier than usual.
So, do you guys think that he might be recovering from his throwing up yesterday? Or think it's something more that I should be concerned about?
I hate that this is the weekend and after today I won't be able to get him to a vet until Monday, but I don't know if I should bring him or not!
Thanks!
