We are on week 5 and today I have stopped his treatments. There is so much improvements I can't believe how well he is. I will watch closely for anything out of the normal. But for 3 days he hasn't spin at all. And his feathers are in the only thing he does now is freak out whenever someone...
so today i wanted to see how Rocky's brother Rhett would do. Not so good he attacked him but Rocky held his own till Rhett knocked him down on his back. I pulled Rocky out and have him in his birdcage. There isn't a feasible way right now to have them contained within sight and smell my brooder...
