He is on his perch. His poop is like water and blood mixed together. He is drinking quite a bit of water. He growls when I come near him. He is losing the water out of his beak and it's thick and stringy. He is sleeping continually. I can't see the vet until 9:30 tomorrow morning
I can't think of anything strange that could have happened. The vet said Amazons suffer from liver damage a lot. The breed is in dire straits. ?

Yes I did feed him a fried egg this morning. But he hardly ate any of it.

But he ate some? Was there shell in it? Was he sick before he ate the egg?

Paula, Can you get to an after hours emergency vet. He really should be seen ASAP. Where are you located? I'll try to look up an emergency vet for you.

My husband went to get some gatorade, I think I'll just put it in his water bowl - he seems to be drinking quite often. I lowered his perch

NO!! No Gatorade! Too high in SODIUM. Just water.
