Common causes of tremors in budgerigars
1 , caused by a cold. A budgie shivering all over may be a symptom of a parrot cold. Colds are a very common disease for us, and parrots actually catch a cold. It’s just that budgerigars are generally not easy to catch colds, usually only when they are hit by cold winter winds or when their feathers are not dried in time after bathing. Especially for budgerigars with higher physique, the chance of catching a cold is very low. But once the parrot catches a cold, the owner must pay attention to it and take corresponding treatment methods in time. Otherwise, if the budgerigar’s cold symptoms continue to delay, the budgerigar’s condition will continue to aggravate, resulting in more serious consequences. After all, there are very few budgerigars that can successfully fight a cold by relying on their resistance.
2, caused by cold. It’s also possible that the budgie’s shivering is caused by the cold. Although the whole body of the parrot is covered with dense feathers, it can withstand a certain degree of severe cold, but the parrot has a limit to resist the cold. As far as budgerigars are concerned, in the case of domestication, I believe that owners know that budgerigars have a relatively average ability to withstand severe cold. After all, it is a tropical parrot. Budgerigars have strong heat dissipation capacity, but their ability to withstand severe cold is relatively general. When the temperature is lower than -5°C, budgerigars will get sick and face the risk of death; in low temperatures In an environment of -10°C, budgerigars are likely to experience trembling symptoms. Generally speaking, compared with other parrot species, the budgerigar’s ability to withstand severe cold is relatively high, but the budgerigar’s ability to withstand severe cold is only limited to above 5 °C. Once it resists this temperature, budgerigars are very strong. It may catch a cold, so when the temperature is too low, it is necessary for the owner to take measures to isolate the budgerigar from the wind and keep warm to prevent it from catching a cold and getting sick.
In addition, the body trembling of budgerigars may indicate a decrease in body control to a certain extent.
Tip: Many owners resort to medical advice based on online or book claims without knowing why their parrots are shaking, but it’s easy Make budgies more threatened. Finally, we remind all owners again: most parrots are also afraid of cold. If the temperature is too low, pay attention to keeping warm for parrots.
