    Chukar Partridge possibly infected, dizzy (ataxia) and shaking! HELP!

    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

    Based on what I've read from the label, it's more of a starter feed. Also meant to be mixed with other grains, corns, etc.

    Recommendations for Chukar Partridge Feed?

    Due to a possible infection caused by the dried game bird feed, I'm looking for any suggestions or recommendations on what to feed my adult Chukar Partridges. Are there any brands of game bird feed that is the gold standard? What percent of protein is typically ideal for adult partridges...

    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
