Dear R,

Yes, keep him warm. Go to a pet store and get Ornacyn Plus. He needes the antibiotics for respiratory infections if this is what he has. They come in little tablets you mix in his water. FOLLOW the Directions on the package. ALSO ask the manager for antibiotics he has for birds with respiratory infections. They might stock a different brand. If they DO NOT have anything. Call around they DO have about 6 different types of these treatments. Call your vet ASAP and bring him in!

If you search under BIRD and then Antibiotics it will bring you to the medication, you can even get it online.

GOOD LUCK...
