Bulge on belly of Orange Bishop Weaver

Post by Ninatabby » Tue Aug 13, 2019 1:33 am

My male Bishop Weaver has this bulge on his belly. He’s also looking kinda scraggly. He’s eating, drinking, and pooping. He loves mealworms. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge they can share as to what this might be and what we can do for him? His name is Congo. His female mate isKenya, and she’s fine. Thanks.

Welcome! That's good that he's still eating and pooping, but if you have an avian vet nearby I would take him in to get it checked out.
