My vet said you can help out with digestion in a crop with crushed papaya enzymes in a water solution. Might try that to help some!Blondie is still here
She perked up a lot yesterday. She’s trying to stand and scratch, but isn’t quite able to yet. I’ve decided to hold off on the sling and PT since she seems to be making the effort on her own. I agree that she’s probably has atrophy. I started giving her chick feed yesterday for the extra protein. We’re also giving her .5 ml of the nutridrench daily.
On the advice of someone here, we started taking her outside to be in the sun for a little while. She really loves it.
I did notice this evening that she’s been making a gagging head movement. I suspect she may have eaten too much today, and I think she’s trying to clear her crop. I hope it isn’t getting an impaction. I’m going to check tomorrow morning and make sure it’s emptying, and then go slower on the food.
Thank you for all your support! You guys are the best!![]()
