My budgie has black poop and isn't eating. Is she very sick?

Question

My budgie is sitting on the floor of her cage not eating or drinking. Her pop is like black oil.

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

The black stool may indicate infection or internal bleeding. Ideally, she should be physically examined by your veterinarian or an experienced avian veterinarian to diagnose and treat the underlying cause. This should be done sooner rather than later since birds are good at concealing illness or injury until they are very sick.
