Hello doctor I budgie is suffering from loose motion since 4 days. His poop is green and semi liquid. I gave him norofloxacin and tinidazole combination and probotic solution but no result seen. He sleeps all day and eats lots of seeds. What should I do doctor? I don't have any avian vet in my city. Thank u

Thanks for reaching out about Meow. Possibly this is not an infectious problem, so antibiotics and anti-fungal might not help. With an all seed or heavy seed diet, fatty liver disease is possible which will not respond to the medications. Increasing protein and vitamins in the diet could help, as could an increase in dietary fiber. An avian veterinary visit is still recommended. Good luck.
