    I have researched those 2, some of the symptoms he has but a lot he doesn't. If it were brain injury what are the odds of him recovering? Thanks again.

    Silkie Roo holding head upside down and between legs. HELP!!

    I am going to try the higher dosage, would it hurt to give the b complex vitamin with the poly and vit e? I have heard to give selenium to help absorb the vit e. I can get some of that also. I did hear something about giving fish oil?? Any thoughts on that?? Thank you all so much for the help...

    Maggots! emergency!

    Just went through the whole maggot deal with one of my roo's. I did the SWAT and I would recommend flushing it with a betadine/water mixture. That will kill any bacteria that is lingering in the wound. Hope she is doing okay.
