Does anyone know why my birds are just up and dying, with no signs of being sick??
I have had my parakeets for a few months, and they seemed happy, and had no signs of being sick. Well 3 days ago, my female parakeet dropped dead, and yesterday, my male parakeet died, and tonight my last male parakeet died. Before this started happening, my female finch died in her nest, but she also showed no signs of being sick. Someone please help!
I’m so sorry to hear about your birds. I know it must really break your heart. I agree about fumes of some kind. Could be dozens of things.
Here’s a site that lists foods and plants that can kill them. It also has links for just about anything else that could have killed them. Hope you can figure it out.

I would have a necropsy done on one of them before I got any more, if I were you. (You can put his body in a double layer of baggies in the fridge—not the freezer— till tomorrow).
Again, my heart goes out to you.
