My parakeets are huddled and falling. Are they sick or scared?

Question

Hello so my two parakeets (budgies) are sitting at the corner of the cage huddled together with their head tucked into their backs and whenever they are active they just climb up the sides of the cage or try to fly on a perch but drop to the bottom.

Thanks for reaching out about your parakeets. It appears as if they are either weak or scared and hiding. With both being ill at the same time, any possibility of inhaled toxins, smoke, perfumes, near the kitchen? If scared, can they be moved to a quieter area, removed from other pets (dogs, cats). If ill, a veterinary visit is recommended. Good luck.
