We have a Parakeet at work who seems to be a bit wobbly at times. She can sit on her perch and climb the side of cage, but on occasion, she will lose her balance and fall forward on her chest. She uses her beak and wings to stablize herself, then regains her composure and is fine. Her wings are NOT clipped and she seems to have trouble flying as well. She had a build-up of fecal matter over her rear and feathers. I got that off via moist water and careful attention with my fingers. She has been started on Marvel Aid, but I feel this may be Neurological issues. She does NOT hold her head different or tilted back or sideways though. Any ideas or just get her to the vet? Thanks!
