Have Lemon examined by a small animal veterinarian. He or she may be able to consult with an avian veterinarian. Antibiotics can be dispensed afterwards if a respiratory infection is diagnosed. In the meantime, keep Lemon warm, dry and away from drafts. Keep her in a low traffic, quiet area to minimize stress. Make sure she has access to fresh food and water at all times.
