As I was checking her this am she pooped a watery movement on me. I`m thinking maybe the last dose of Albendazole could have caused it. I`ll wait and see. Yesterday her poop looked almost normal.

You may want to start her on some probiotics.

I had been giving her probiotics on and off. Today is the second day of Amoxy Tyl. I just went to check on her, now she can`t get up. I tried standing her up seemed too weak. She wasn`t like that yesterday. I ceased the antibiotics. I feel like she isn`t going to make it, just like that. Could the anti biotic affected her adversely? Ok I don`t know how I missed it but, she has bumble foot on both feet. I started treatment immediately. I have had several birds with bumble foot and have successfully treated them all. She never limped or gave any indication she had it! Could she have an infection throughout her body now caused from the bumble foot? I suppose I better put her back on the anti biotics. She still eats and drinks a little. Your thoughts?

I'm sorry she's in decline.

Do you have photos of her and her feet? I suppose it's possible if the Bumblefoot is very severe, infection could have spread to the rest of the body.

I don`t have any photos. I have already begun treatment. Scab removal, ect. Just like I always do. I would say moderate bumblefoot. One of her foot pads was about 3/4 covered by a scab and the other a little more than that. The worst one I worked the scab off and it looked like most all of the infection came out with the scab. I did not dig around any as it was raw and looked decent. The other foot had healed over but Likely needs more attention. It was late and I just what I could quickly. I have had lame birds before, should I give her more caltrate +d3? Do those anti biotics ever cause any ill effects? Poops are now normal. She wants to get up but can`t. I gave her a caltrate +d3 at this pointnot going to hurt anything. Not eating or drinking that I see. If I don`t see some signs of improvement within a reasonable time. I am going to euthanize her as much as I just hate doing it. I don`t want her to suffer for too long.
