our budgie dropped dead suddenly and we got a new one as to help with the other parakeets grieving and the other died 1 week after putting him in, im guessing a disease of sorts as we saw no blood and they seemed to be very close, we have had the surviving bird (and the 1st dead one) for a year. my only guess is a disease of sorts that only affects males, any other suggestions?

they could have cough something can you remember what he was acting like before he died sometimes there might have a bug in the cage that might have caused it luck thou tells me he may have caught something in the air or is a carrier of something that he couldn't fight
he was acting a bit more jumpy and got more scared easily, the girl parakeet is still alive so i dont think it was a bug (there was no blood on either of them) but i do believe its a disease that the surviving girl parakeet is either immune or it doesnt target females. if you think it could be something else
