That's for sure, I was thinking more along the lines of some ailment that's lurking in the background and possibly affecting the brain bit they talk about. Even vaccination, We vaccinate against PMV which one of the symptoms is imbalance, walking backwards, twisting of neck etc. Just wonder if there could be a connection.

It's beyond my ken, but a sick bird will have its navigation ability affected especially anything that affects the sineses.

Infection can cause unsteadiness on your feet loss of balance if the inner ear is infected knocks you totaly off balance .
