Unfortunately no :( I don't know how to tube feed. I tried to give him a little food by syringe but since I'm afraid it might go to his airways I stopped.
What do you think his problem is? :(
My male quail is sick for a week now. A month ago we lost one of his friends. She had exactly the same symptoms as him. He has droppings like
very watery green/yellow lines of mucus? not eating much, his crop is mostly empty, he is not so lethargic but mostly sits in the corner...
I went to the...
Thank you for the explanation. 🙏
No, unfortunately vet didn't make any fecal float test. It's really hard to find an avian vet where i live :(
I visited and called so many vets today but only one of them had Toltrazuril, and none of them had amprolium.
Hi!
One of my quail passed away a month ago. And yesterday one of her friends showed the symptoms exactly like her. Mucousy string poop with water, not eating or drinking, lethargy..
I took the one that has passed away to the vet before and vet prescribed levamisole and Enrofloxacin to her. But...
I can call the clinic but I'm not sure if they answer or I can contact to the vet who examined my quail. Because of the lockdown I had to go to the emergency service of the clinic. (For the vets only emergency service is open during the lockdown)
The vet was not very familiar with the birds...
I use a medicine called Sitraks. It's in a liquid form.
As I mentioned it has 40mg levamisole per 5ml. So 1ml has 8mg of levamisole
According to the chart (18mg/kg) 250 gr quail should use 4,5mg levamisole.
So that means 0.56ml of the syrup. Am I wrong?
That's why I thought she miscalculated...
Hi! Today vet prescribed 0.06 ml levamisole orally to my 250gr quail. And said repeat it after 14 days.
The med she prescribed is in a form of 40mg/5ml solition
I look it up the dosing but It says 18-36mg/kg or 40mg/kg in different sources.
But either way the dosage she perscribed is so low? It...
Thanks for the reply.
Well, I obviously researched the medicine he mentioned. If I'm not wrong it is given by injection and I don't know how to give her injections. I think any vet would be against the idea selling me that medicine because it's a strong antibiotic and here the law prohibits us...
Hi, I know I posted a thread before about this but nothing seems to be helping.
I'm so sad, I talked like more than 5 vets and they all said they only examine cats and dogs.
My female quail is sick for 3-4 days. She is always standing still, I didn't see her sit for the last 3 days.
At first she...
Thanks for the information.
I will try to get her to the vet as soon as i can.
Hope my poor girl can make it through :(
Also her poops are changed to the green and kinda brown slimy pieces with white liquids
here I'm attaching a photo.
Is this really Ulcerative enteritis?
I separated her as soon as i noticed.
Sorry, not exactly sure what are save-a-chick and nutri-drench so googled it. I suppose one of them is vitamin and other is electrolyte. I gave her vitamin this morning and for the electrolyte i didn't have any so I found a DIY Electrolyte Solutions recipe...
Hi! I have three quail. One of them is a&m and two others are tibetan.
Altough I was not a member before, I have learned a lot from the BYC. It helped me so much till this day.
I became a member today so that I can get help and learn more :)
One of my quail is sick now so I would appreciate if...
Hi !
One of my female quails has stopped laying for a week and she seems lethargic.
Today she keeps pooping watery droppings. They are so liquid like almost water.
Some of them are yellowish and a little bit slimy and some of them has long lines that i assume intestinal linings.
I don't see...
