update: sent him to an avian vet, they ran blood tests and stool tests

vet said WBC were elevated which indicates infection (I suspected that immediately based on symptoms)

waiting to find out out what kind of infection by tomorrow. Hopefully he makes it

Any update from the vet?

Any update from the vet?

Took him home yesterday, they suspected a bacterial infection

gave us a prescription for amoxicillin 100 mg by mouth twice daily x 14 days

showing improvement, drinking water on his own now after 3 days of antibiotics. Really optimistic but still concerned that it might be a fungal infection

pretty good improvement from a few days ago which is a great sign - monitoring his food and water intake too

he wasn't drinking previously but now seems to be drinking on his own
