Pet's info: Bird | Canary | Male | unneutered | 0.04 lbs
Good morning. Since yesterday's afternoon I noticed that my canary has been behaving weirdly. He doesn't chirp near as often as he usually does and when it does, it sounds a bit different. Plus, his droppings have been different too, more liquid and green. He still moves around and eats normally from what I have been seeing.

Thanks for reaching out about Autumn and including a photo. Watery and green stool is usually an indication of poor appetite. Loss of voice is typical of a tracheal or other respiratory disease, possible obstruction, infection or air sac mites. A veterinary visit is highly recommended to assist with a diagnostic/treatment plan. Providing supplemental heat in the 80-85 F range might give some aid but is not a treatment. Good luck.
