Brought her in and she seems perky enough herself and pretty normal but have got a vets appointment at 1-15pm tomorrow.
I have put guardian angel in her water and white paper on the cage floor

Put her back with the extra warmth again in the hospital cage set-up until you can sort out what is wrong. Just feed her seed and millet, no veggies, in the meantime.

Julie keep the sides and top of the cage covered so that the heat is retained. If that seems a bit warm leave a side and a bit of the top uncovered so that some heat can escape - she will go to the amount of warmth she needs. If you can offer her both, keep the guardian angel available to her, and don't forget about cold weak tea.
I truly hope the vet tomorrow gives you some answers. Tell the vet about the awful seed, and that it seemed mouldy - this could well be Beauty's problem. Keeping fingers and wings crossed for Beauty making a quick and total recovery.

I poured some of the gaurdian angel in a little bowl last night and picked her up and put her beak to it, she took a few sips and I put her back and a few minutes later she went up on the perch and stayed there ,but she has runny poo stuck to her vent . I just rang the vet to see if I could take her this morning but they fully booked so will have to stick to my time at 1-15pm. Should I clean her vent or leave for the vet to see

Been to the vet and he said Beauty is a sick little bird and that her poo looked like it was due to liver problems which could be a result of the dirty seed she ate in that carry cage . He has given her antibiotics and vitamin b and I have to give her more antibiotics tonight and twice tomorrow for few days , hoping she picks up a bit and starts eating , I am to keep up with the gaurdian angel and the probiotic in her seed. also I have to keep her in a very warm room of around 40c so she is upstairs in the bedroom with heatmat underneath cage and radiator on and I am going to put the oil filled radiator up thee for her and her cage is cover exept the front . so hopes and prayers she makes it . She is such a beautiful budgie and still so young . I am gutted this has happened through something that could have so easily been avoided if she hadnt been put in a dirty cage . I wish now I had thought about taking my own cage with me when I went to pick her up , but I was thinking that the first time I went and got my first 2 budgies I washed the cage out myself and give it a good clean before giving back to him so I thought when I went to get Beauty and Bobby they would have been going in a clean cage , but that wasnt the case as he had lent the clean one out to someone else and mine ended up in another dirty one

All my best thoughts and prayers for you and Beauty. Both of you are fighters, so I expect to hear good news. I worry whenever a budgie isn't feeling well.

Still keep her warm. She's not out of the woods yet. Also, if you haven't already, get her some millet to eat. It's easier to digest while they are unwell.
