My conure can't fly, isn't eating, vomiting, and very sleepy. Help!

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Bird | Conure | Female | unspayed

My green-cheecked conure makes an unpleasant noise when touching her abdomen and right wing, it can't move her right wing and is impeding her on flying correctly. She hasn't eaten nor drank much, barely at all and I haven't seen a poop in a long time, her last poop was decent. The next morning she vomited (quite solid and not liquid nor runny). And she is very sleepy. It may be some spoiler food I gave her by error, but can't explain the pain in the wing. I don't see any visible wounds.

Thanks for reaching out about Simba and including photos. By the photos she appears very sick. The dropped wing might be a possible shoulder trauma. A veterinary visit is needed, ASAP. Providing supplemental heat is important prior to your veterinary visit. Good luck.
