How did Victor die?
I am not sure exactly why he died. It could have been one or a combination of many things. Unknown to me he was eating plant pods that may have contained fermeldahide from a pussy willow plant. It could also have been that he developed some kind of sickness or cancer that I was unaware of. I also noticed him gorging himself on budgie gravel a few days prior to his death, which could have also contributed. It is not uncommon for budgies to mask illnesses and die unexpectedly at around three or four years of age.
