The first thing I would check is condition. feel the Keel bone and see just how fleshy the bird is. If it's in poor condition I would feed it the rescue remedy and see if that makes it put weight on, if not then the parasite load could be heavy and a good worming could be in order. To confirm this a vet can do a fecal float test that will determine the type of worms you may be dealing with.
