Epsom salt is a laxative. That will account for her runny poo.

Pipd, I hope you know how special you are. I'm sure that Blizzy knows how lucky she is and can feel all the love you are giving her. I hope she pulls through.
I got plenty of water in Blizzy over the day, but was having a hard time getting her to eat. I decided tonight, since it was late, that I'd just try to get her to eat a little yolk for supper, just to keep her going.
I was not aware that raw yolks were so thick! This made my life a heck of a lot easier feeding her! She was able to eat it off a spoon easily because of how thick it was, and she ate almost all of it with about 6 mL of water.
She seems to do better in the afternoon, and worse in the morning. I'm not sure if I can get myself up in the middle of the night to feed and water her to see if that's why. She has been in the house for three days. I guess time will tell if my work is going to pay off. I really want to see Blizzy stand on her own again. Trying not to get too hopeful, though.
I appear to have cured Blizzy's 'shocks'.
Apparently, the 'shocks' I was seeing had been Blizzy trying to shift herself to a more comfortable position. I designed the sling to allow her wings to hang over the edges while the sling itself was against her sides. I tucked her wings into the sides of the sling, and lo and behold, the 'shocks' are no more!
So in spite of feeling kind of lousy for causing her more discomfort, I got between 46 and 50 mL of water in her (the measuring cup said 50 mL, but the syringe said 46 mL). I'm hoping that's a better amount for her to have to prevent dehydration.
