Thanks for the tag! Boy i really hope it can be easily taken care of. @FlockQueen are you being bitten by gnats or see small bugs flying around? The bites are visible, lots of swelling.

Thank you! I wouldn't have even known to look for it if not for your article. I've lost about 10 birds in a week and a half..all about 3 months but she's much bigger.
