I am so sorry to hear of your birds' passing. It's always hard when animals die suddenly, but I hope your two new birds live long, happy lives. I love the name Quark, it sounds absolutely perfect for a little parakeet!

my birds passed away from some kind of toxin i couldn't identify :< i cleared away everything and hunted down all possible sources, and after making sure my home was secure, I bought 2 more parakeets. eventually, i will get another cockatiel, but for now, I have Quark and Odo.
Quark is a very dark gray parakeet and I have no idea what kind of morph he is! Odo is all yellow and I think his eyes are tinted red, so he's maybe an albino green. I'll have to take a better look to be sure. :>

The parrot is quite loud and happy most of the time (apart from when I go to sleep, then he gets really loud) I would give him a name but if he does happen to have an owner, I don't want to confuse the parrot with another name so for now I just say simple things such as "Hi!" if you have any tips for taking care of him for now? Thankies :D

I brought him to the vet and they gave him some baytril, but they can't pinpoint what exactly is causing this. This happened about two months ago and the baytril made him get better for a while, but this time he seems worse. There's the possibility that he has a tumor in his crop, in which case there's nothing that can be done to heal him. We have to take him back in about a week for x-rays and bloodwork to really see what's going on, but I don't know if he'll make it. He's only 2, I was hoping he'd have a better life than this. I'm so worried, I don't know what to do other than let him rest and cry. I'm just hoping he'll make it long enough so that we can take x-rays, and we can go from there, whether it's a different type of treatment of letting him die in peace.
