Please Help!

this is so depressing, our 10 year old budgie has been puffing up all week but we assumed it was since the weather was getting chilly and he did it every year.

well now he is at the bottom of the cage, breathing very hard, is not eating/drinking when we try hand feeding him, has his eyes closed at all times and last week he hurt his leg but after a few days he seemed back to normal.

oh god please help me if you have any knowledge of birds

we put him in a box with a light to help warm him up and a little box like nest so he can hide from the heat. he is not moving but just breathing hard. we put some water in a very shallow bowl/cup and spread bird seed around.

can we do anything else?

P.S: i know this should be in the other pets section but this is an emergency and i know this is a fish website but there are a significant amount of less bird forums out there. i know you guys will see it more here.

please have a heart and help

Losing a pet is always very sad , but think what a very long life he had with you .You must have looked after him really well for him to have lived to such an old age.Sorry for your loss.
