Strange behaviour

My 7yr old rescue Quacker (gender unknown) has just started sitting on the cage floor. He doesn’t seem to be doing anything, just sitting or sleeping in the one spot. It bothers me because he’s never done that before. He will occasionally go down there to retrieve dropped treats, but usually he loves being up on the perches.

Hi,

It sounds like he isn’t feeling well and needs to be seen by an Avian Vet as soon as possible.

Take care,

Brenda
