My pet bird (Red. Vented Bulbul), age = 2 yrs, is sick. Whatever it eats gets excreted. It has infections near the eye (picture). Sits in a dark place. Looks tired. Please help.

I'm sorry your bird isn't doing well. If he is unable to digest food and now has an infection or growths, it would be best to have him checked out by your vet in person. Infections internally, GI issues, organ dysfunction, parasites, etc can all be possible causes to not digesting food properly, and having any new growths looked at is best. In the meantime, keeping him eating, drinking and keeping any wounds or affected areas clean can help, as well as making sure he is separated from any other birds to prevent the spread of illness.
