    Firstly I would take this poor bird to a vet and have it looked over, it may need a special diet to recover essential vitamins it has lossed. Also it may be de-hydrated and need proper medical attention. See what condition the bird is in when you get it, observe if it is eating and drinking normally, this way you can notify the vet if anything is worrying you. Birds kept in dark rooms for long periods may also have eye sight problems, im not a vet so a proffesional opinion is your safest option. Good luck i hope you give it the home it deserves.
