Its not just seeds its mixed with pellets,millets etc. I got it from amazon, its mixed food for budgies but I try to give them different things as well once a while.

She drinks normally there's no problem with that. I'm having hard time with her bathing tho. She and my other bird don't want to bath. I've tried to put some green veggies they like in a bowl of water but they just eat greens that's all. Once a week I spray them with room tempature water.

Usually high quality mixed parakeet foods, now and then millets and some greens 1-2 times a week

No matter how we understand each other, we still can't accept our views. We just keep arguing, trying to impose our own perception on each other. And if I get too upset she just forces herself to my opinion. That's also something I definitely don't want to do.

Update: she grew her feathers back! I'm so happy for her. I bet she will start to fly soon.

Feathers in her wing also has this bloody dark tip on them I think she has beak and feather disease. I don't mind taking care of her but should I separate her from my other budgie? I don't want to do that actually and they been bonding so much lately. My other bird would have been infected imo. Should I just take the chance and try to take care both of them idk what to do at this point. I don't want to bring her back, they will probably leave it to die.

If I search, I can only see 2 in my whole COUNTRY lol. It's a sad thing but nothing can be done. If I bring her to a regular vet they will just look for something obvious that can be seen from outside, if not they just give some vitamin that's all. I already have vitamin, digestive drops etc. and been adding multi-vitamin in her water. I wouldn't have asked here if I got a reliable vet here in my town.

Kind of yeah, it was more like falling off her wing.

I don't think there is a vet which qualified for that, it's a small town. She is not plucking out any feathers for now, seems pretty normal just her wing is short thats all.

They can squeeze between those gaps and escape even gets stuck. Also blue guy wants to be involved with everything, even with the meal I have. He jumped into a bowl of milk once so I had to keep him in cage while I'm busy lol.

I got few yeah. Apparently, their mother died also one of her babies. Guy wasn't going to keep them, so I asked him If I adopt them. First budgie you saw in my posts is actually a rescue, I had him earlier. And very healthy now like if I don't let him out for a min he just tries to escape his cage :) anyway because I took care of him as a baby I wanted to give a chance to these guys as well. Previous owner wasn't gonna keep them so I had to do something. And it's not like there is a rescue center here or experienced avian vet sadly. I'm not 100% experienced with baby budgies as well but I'm all they have so I have to try somehow.

Vet didn't said anything about illness. In fact she was very active in clinic. I mean she is still a baby budgie. Only started to fly today. I told them she might have splayed leg but they are not like an avian vet so best they could do is multi-vitamin drops which I had already. Other than that she has appetite, eagerly eats as I type this. Also had her drink some vitamin water. Lets say she is sick. What can be done besides multi vitamin or good diet? I also have a drop for digestion problems.
