I know that this a finch forum but I also know that many of you like myself have other birds besides finches. My cockatail that was 10 years old died today. He was fine at 2:00 pm when I fed him and cleaned his cage. Then around 4:00 pm I saw him sitting on his perch. Then I was busy doing things and at 6:30 pm I looked in on him and he was on the bottom of his cage face down with blood coming out of his mouth. He was dead and cool to the touch.
Oh please has anyone any idea what could have happened to my talyor boy.
Robert
Please help me my bird died

So very sorry about your cockatiel Robert.
It's very difficult to say what may have caused his death. I'm sure you are well aware that birds hide symptoms of their illnesses, often til it's too late.
Blood from the mouth... possibly a hemorrhage??
Again, I'm sorry for you loss.
