Thank you all again - here's an update- yesterday my parrot expert friend brought over baby bird food and syringe and we force fed everyone. The stronger one perked up almost immediately. Last night, tho, my son was giving the weakest one water, and she pooped diarrhea with blood, spat up the...

Thank you all for your encouragement and support. I have been dropper feeding mashed yolk with electrolyte and mashed feed and this morning one was actually walking! Still very tired, and i am still forcing fluids and food, so maybe she will pull thru. I have separated the sickies from the busy...

Thanks One Acre! Will do!
