So the young star finch I got I think it has air sack mites none of my others have it they are all fine and this one was yesterday he was tweeting really loud in the sun I even took photos of them all tweeting away climbing in the bamboo tree

However today she has started not tweeting but her beak open and closing again and again and when he try’s to tweet it sounds like air like a hustle

I’ve never had this before so what should I do I’ve separated her for now and she’s being quarantined ?

Flight Feathers yea must be because after being in the small cage for about an 2-3 hours he got all his energy back farting around scarred of me and tweeting again so I guess he’s fine ? Lol maybe he felt abit under the weather
