I am gutted, i had to rush Bobby to the vet late on tuesday evening as he sort of collapsed, the vet checked him over and said he was under weight. They kept Bobby in over night and gave him antibiotics and vitamin injection, through the night he went from bad to worse so they gave him an injection to try and stimulate him but to no avail and he passed away in the early hours. We are waiting for a blood test to see if he had any kind of virus. I am so mad at myself for not seeing some of the early signs like he was flying shorter distances. The other buds seem fine but bobby will be such a massive miss.

So sorry to hear about Bobby You can't blame yourself for not seeing any early signs of illness, although we all do it. Like most animals, they tend to hide it. Hope the rest are OK.

Budgies do hide their illnesses so well, as any sign of weakness makes the others in the flock pick on them. So don't beat yourself up, you did all you could when you could. So sorry for your loss bud9. Rest in peace dear little Bobby.

That's for sure bud9. For something so small they certainly tug at the heart strings.

Received a call from the vet and there was no sign of any type of virus so the other buds should be ok, they are now doing fine and getting on with their lives. Thanks again to everyone.
