Hi All!
I am hoping to get some input on my girl..peep. She is a Bantam Cochin/silkie cross...2 1/2 years old and 3 pounds.
I took her to the vet on Wed afternoon because I was afraid she was eggbound/having laying issues. He x-rayed...no egg issues at all. He gave her a shot of antibiotics in case she had some type of infection since he didn't really see any other issues. He also noticed some fluid in her abdomen and drained I...but again nothing noticeably wrong in the fluid other than it was there. I also gave her a dewormer, since I have never wormed her...just in case.
She is sleepy off and on...doing better each day, but definitely not back to her usual self. She is eating and drinking regularly but not a lot. Her crop consistently has food in it.
As of today:
She is still dropping green and whitish poop...small amounts..but regularly
She got a convenia injection from the vet on wed.
Treated her with the dewormer Sat night....ivermectin
Growing feathers back from her molt...lots of pin feathers
Sat
Today...sunday
The vet said the shot could make her poop runny for a few days.
We are keeping her inside...nice and warm.
Would appreciate any advise/input or experience. I really don't want to just search around because there are so many different situations out there....hard to know what applies
Wondering how long it will take her to bounce back...am I missing anything?
Thanks!!!!
