The vet at the Avian Medical Center told us the issue is mold infection and dust. The dust irritated the gander's respiratory system, and that also made the mold to get him more easily. The vet prescribed 1 week of sporonox capsules, 1 per day, for treating the infection. The vet also suggests...

Aug 9th update We didn't give him anti-inflammation medicine last night (but still gave him the antibiotics) due to stress concern and concern about hurting him while using the syringe given difficulty to hold his head, and not giving the anti-inflammation probably affects him. He's eating less...

His condition seems improved. He has been eating grass seeds so far and has started eating lettuce. We suspect mold infection, so we don't let him go into the house (where he lived) for now but instead, accompany him outdoors at night. He hasn't eaten his favorite feed. (We don't know if it's...

Never dewormed him. He's happy when he sees his feed and lettuce, and he sometimes tries to take a bite but then give up.

The gander was eating normally until yesterday (Aug. 4). Yesterday, he ate much less than normal (sudden loss of appetite) and had severe head-and-neck-forward gaping multiple times. Today (Aug. 5), he hasn't eaten much, either, and still has gaping. I gave him water mixed with Sav-a-Chick...
