    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    Blondie is definitely doing better but obviously must have reproductive issues since some of her poops look like they contain egg yolk. I took her to the avian vet this afternoon in hopes the same type of slow release hormone implant done for BB could help Blondie. The vet said it would most...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    Thank you for the information. I just received the very extensive report from the ER vet and haven't had time to really go through everything. Blondie seemed a bit better today. I did better at giving her the meds this morning. Hopefully the antibiotic is working and she is in less discomfort...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    I'm afraid to postpone the antibiotics......I'm still hoping to get some guidance from the avain vet I've used before. She put a hormone implant in my cockatiel when she was continually laying.

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    I'll have to read about shell gland problems......It seems strange that she was so normal and then suddenly Friday evening she was just totally changed in her behavior. From zippy to zapped. If the cause of the infection is egg yolk peritonitis does she have any chance of recovery? The vet...

    Purina Layena crumbles. Oyster shell and grit is always available. Also most evenings when I supervise "out time" in a controlled area I mix up Layena, Feather Fixer (everyone is molting), plain uncooked oatmeal, a good sized pinch of crushed eggshell and water. ....I put this mix in a bowl...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    He prescribed Trimethoprim-Sulfa, Metacam, and Calcium Glubionate. Radiologist will read x-rays tomorrow but no internal egg was shown, although he said he saw some small opaque area in lung. I haven't seen any issues with her respiration. He said she was dehydrated. I took her in around 10:00...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    So, the "exotic specialist" vet is doing x-rays and blood work to see about blood calcium levels and if her body is able to process calcium appropriately. I was given the lecture about the illegality of certain types of antibiotics for use with poultry. He says Blondie was in pain when he...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    Thanks, Allvet is where I ordered the amoxicillin but it won't arrive until probably Tuesday. I'm definitely leaning to just taking her to the Emergency vet place so she can get started on antibiotics immediately.

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    I found an online pharmacy with ampicillin and paid for express shipping hoping to get the drug ASAP....but it will still be Tuesday at best. I brought her in to the crate again last night so I could see if any more cheese stuff was passed and because we had frost last night. Could not get her...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    I was told that enrofloxacin was an anti-inflamatory medication and I need to find an anti-biotic don"t I? So should both ampacillin and enrofloxacin be given at once....in an ideal situation? I don't care if Blondie never lays another egg, I just want to try to help her recover from whatever...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    Update: Blondie looked somewhat better during the late afternoon "play ground" time today, She still is not returned to her previous level of health at all...I did see her eat a bit of the wet Layena mix in the treat bowl. I did not see her poop. She ate some weeds/grass in the protected area...

    Salpingitis? Calcium? Antibiotics?

    Yesterday morning an egg was found under roost with no shell or membrane. By afternoon Blondie, 2 year old Buff Orpington, was definitely sick....back hunched up, little interest in treats, lethargic.....totally different from her normal behavior. She was first to go into the coop yesterday...
