Oh gosh, I just saw this post after sending you some more information. Hopefully, the information can help you or someone else in the future. I am so very sorry for your loss. :hugs

Greetings Zerex, If you want to give Sunny a chance for survival it will take work on your part. I have brought many birds back from the brink of death, it can be done. First let's consider Sunny's breathing. She may have had a respiratory infection from the beginning. That will require a...
