Re: is my bird unhealthy
he's probably fine... check the keel bone .. and if need be do a little research to find out how it should feel
Re: is my bird unhealthy
His feathers look rather big. How old is the bird?

Hard to tell just from looking. Birds are masters of hiding their ailments. You could always take it to the vet for a well-bird check up.
His/her tail looks extremely stubby, even for a young bird. Was it somehow ripped out? Or do you know? Always interesting with new birds/adoptions/rescues.
