My Budgies wing keeps shaking?

Question

My budgies wing keeps shaking, and I am unsure what is wrong with it.

She can fly very well, she seems content but her wing shakes a lot. Sometimes both wings shake but one more than the other.

Does anybody know what is wrong with her?

Answer 1

they are just doing that because they are content..

they also do that when they have finished preening.... that will make the feathers back to their places.......

do not worry its normal.....

try reading infos about their behaviors....

u really dnt knw too much abt them do u????

Answer 2

I'm unclear on how much the wings are "shaking".  If the shaking is rather like an involuntary twitch or tic it could be neurological and possibly indicative of zinc or lead poisoning.  I would certainly suggest taking the little bird to an avian vet.  If you catch metal poisoning early enough it's often possible to reverse with chelating medication.
