^ I am thinking to call all the vets in my area to see if there is a more experienced one I could see. Unfortunately she said the closest avian vet is about 4 hours away, but I suppose that might be the best option..

He doesn't really eat any fatty foods... What should I feed vs. not feed? He seems to like his veggies. I think he eats more seeds than pellets, but I have seen him nibble on the pellets ..

She did not do a blood test, she said today it would be best to just do the nail trim because she did not want to stress him out further. She recommended that I invest in a scale to weigh my birds, which I do agree with.... She said that his stomach is sunken in, which indicated no tumors, just that he was skinny.
