sick diamond dove-help needed!

[rainefeather19128]

i am nursing already a sick diamond dove who this morning i found huddled on the bottom follor of her cage.she seems very weak,her feathers are standing out on end and she resists fairly when i capture and hold her.she doesn't put up her usuall hard fighting though which worries me.she takes a slight interest in food though i have not seen her drink water.she twiches her head like she has nerve damage when she is very stirred up and flustered.other than that she is doing most of her time staying still and resting.she also is in the habbit of drooping her wings and balancing herself with them,like they are her wings yet arms at the same time.

just a few moments later i found my white cfw female hen jessie on the floor of the cage acting the same way as the dove though not as bad.she seems worn out and feathers are fluffed.i have yet to catch her eating or drinking.

no poisonous stuff has been used in the house.it doesn't seem like they have a chill nor do they seem eggbound.anyone know what is wrong or experience this?how can i save them?

could this be heat stroke symptoms?

I dont know what is wrong with your birds - but it sounds like something serious. You *really* need to get them to an avian vet, and you're waisting time that could mean their lives by posting here and waiting for people to tell you what to do.

PLEASE get your birds to a vet!
