Thanks for reaching out about Zazu and including a photo. During brumation, they should be left alone, as stimulation will increase metabolism. As they are semi-conscious, a soak is not recommended as they will likely not be able to swallow, and this could also warm them and increase metabolism. Good luck.

He can stay in his bowl, but be sure it has clean water in it as they often defecate while soaking. You should also provide a hide or shelter for him as well. Do not leave his cage in direct sunlight as this could result in temps that are too high and possibly dangerous.

If the food is full of mouse droppings it is best to purchase new food ASAP. While treats can be given, they are not a balanced diet, and a new food should be purchased and given as soon as possible to avoid any illness or GI upset. In the future, placing their food in an airtight storage container made from plastic can help prevent rodents from getting to it.

If he is weak, then yes, remove any climbing branches to prevent falls. You can soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte. This will provide warmth and may treat or prevent minor dehydration. Repta-Boost is an excellent supplement, however you should still provide a powdered multivitamin and calcium supplement. Also, replace the UVB light if it is old.

Thanks for reaching out about Candy and Tweety. Heat support in the 80-85 F range can give comfort. With both birds ill, inhaled or ingested toxins, a virulent bacterial or viral disease are probable and a veterinary visit is needed ASAP, as birds have little reserves to fall back on. Good luck.
