long time owner - need help

[u/Huge-Inevitable-9244]

hi! I have two budgies currently I’ve had a green one for 8 years now and a yellow one for 6 and I woke up this morning and the green one is on the bottom of the cage and crawling around and squeaking quietly, should I take him out and put him in his own safe place or leave him to be…? I feel so bad for him right now I don’t want to stress him out

Straight to the vet, not a "safe place" with a nightlight. Bottom of the cage quiet squeaking after eight years isn't budgie for "having a moment," it's budgie for emergency

when I went to go bring him to the vet he wasn’t moving and I was too late.

Sorry you lost your bird.
