Is there any natural herb/supplement that can help a bird who is experiencing puffed up feathers and bloody droppings?

Unfortunately, you're probably not going to find anything that is effective. The bloody droppings can be due to infection, parasites or malnutrition to name a few causes. The puffed up feathers can be a general symptom of stress or illness. Ideally, Bruno should be physically examined by your veterinarian or an experienced avian veterinarian to diagnose illness or injury. Submit a stool sample to diagnose intestinal parasites or bacterial overgrowth. Do not medicate him without the advice of your veterinarian, even if using herbs or other supplements.
