My budgie sneezes everytime after being fed


Everytime after a feeding my budgie sneezed any idea why this is it has done this for a week now is a hand fed budgie has no symptoms of being sick it just sneezes everytime I feed it 🤔


Answer:

Hi,

It sounds like maybe the formula is too watery, or you may be feeding it too fast. If the bird gets food in its lungs, it will usually die. So you need to feed more carefully. I would take the bird to an Avian Vet to be sure there isn’t another issue and to see if they can give you some help with hand feeding.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
