Then she wasn't egg bound.
Was she at all out of sorts the last few days?
No she seemed just fine that morning.
What was odd is that even though she was at the bottom of the cage, she seemed to be upright just fine. When I put her in the hospital cage on a towel she couldnt sit up straight and arched her head up and back and her wing out. Thinking back on how she looked, im wondering if she was injured some how. At the time I just thought she was reacting to being egg bound, which now I dont believe she was. My wife was watching her while I went to get the heat lamp. She said shortly after I left to go out in my garage, the finch laid straight and pushed her legs out straight then that was it. She was gone.
I did notice the home made swing that I made for the finches was knocked out of place and was hanging only by one side. But that is not abnormal, they have knocked it that way before. But I still have to wonder if in a panic, a noise or something, she got spooked, ran into the swing then fell? I can only speculate.
Thank you for all of your kind words.
