She seems perfectly healthy to me she sings out alot movs aroud alot I just don/t know if it's the male or she is having problems?My female masked lovebird is bleeding from her bottom?
If you have another cage, separate them %26amp; watch her.
There is a uropygial gland on the tail, right above the vent of many parrots. It's their preen gland %26amp; sometimes, if this gland is dry, irritated, itching or otherwise bothering them, they can mutilate it.
This is true of their vent also. Lift her %26amp; carefully feel her abdomen, from about the center of her belly to her vent. If you feel anything hard, she may be egg bound (carrying an egg that she can't pass). If you think she may be egg bound, she needs to be taken to an avian vet ASAP, but in the mean time, she needs warmth %26amp; increased humidity...vaporizers work well.
If you don't feel anything hard, check her vent area to be sure that that is where the blood is coming from. Since she is moving around, it could be that she broke a blood feather. Hens that are egg bound are usually lethargic %26amp; look sick, as the egg often presses on internal organs.
Good luck...My female masked lovebird is bleeding from her bottom?
Might be she pluck off a blood feather?
