  1. Check for sour crop. That would be my guess.


  2. I find it hard to believe you can't reach a single vet in your area - but given that's the case, you need to keep him warm and hydrated until you CAN reach a vet.

    Birds do not do well under stress; if he does not receive some sort of educated medical help he will either come out of this on his own and be fine, or he will pass.

  3. Is its crop impacted and giving it a bloated look? Could be that could be he hit himself and injured air sacs. Could be many things. My advice would be to keep him very warm put heating pad under cage. Put food and water low. Keep in quite dim lit room. Call vet and if cannot reach call other vets in area that sees birds. Also can call pet stores as they must have some insight on this stuff I would think. Without seeing it is hard to guess what is wrong with him. you are sure its not the female and she is not egg bound? Good luck to you.
