Question by Alisia: My African Grey parrot is unstable and shivering. She falls off of her cage and perch and has very little bal?
My african grey parrot is unstable and shivering. She falls off of her cage and perch and has very little balance. She has been taking antibiotics for 4 days and has not been improving. She has been eating a variety of nutrients. Fruits, vegetables, eggs, rice, chicken, etc. What is wrong with her?

She is very sick. You really need to get her back to a vet, and the sooner the better.
Best of luck, I hope she’s ok.
I hate that vets give antibiotics when there is no apparent infection. Did you see a certified avian vet?
I would immediately get her warm. A 40 watt bulb outside the cage and right next tothe wire and her perch would be good. Is the perch secure and NOT a dowel? A tree branch is a better choice.
More info would help – do you cover her at night? When does she shiver and fall? All times of the day? Is she near a window? If so there may be something predator like outside the window. Does she also get nuts and seeds? Does she have a cuttle bone? This could be a very low calcium reaction if she does not get a calcium supplement. Is her poopy normal looking?
I have 2 Greys and have not seen this. You can email me directly from this site. Give us more info.
Stick with an Avian specialist if you have a vet that already prescribed the antibiotics, for what and what kind? I have a cag that evidently may have had a stroke a month ago, and am working with an avian specialist. She has been able to perch the entire night, but was holding on with her beak. I decided to stay with her the rest of the night, and she started shivering periodically. She woke up and is back in her cage again. The shivering is something new. So I searched and came upon your question.
