Gladys is not feeling well.

Can you place her in a warm room?

Good idea, I just brought her inside to her winter and storm habitat in the basement where it's warm and dry. She seemed to perk up a little.

Yes she has the dose @casportpony. Do you know how to give meds she also can show you that too.

No, I have never given her any medication. This is the first time she has been ill.

Thanks, just let me know when can get it. She's alert and happy to be inside. Casually plucking a feather or two when I talk to her.

Ok, just got back from getting her the calcium gluconate. It is 17 fl oz of 23% solution. How much should I giver her? I just checked on her and tried to feed her meal worms which she always loves but she wouldn't eat it. Also she is now shivering and it's 69 degrees. Should I squirt some in her mouth? I'm really worried now.

I always give this by mouth with a syringe and an angiocath sheath which is like a real skinny straw that locks onto the syringe which you probably won't have a prayer of finding.

Get someone to hold her for you, open her mouth real wide and and give her 1-1 1/2 ml of it straight be sure to aim down the right side of her mouth and don't shoot it in the middle hole because that is her trachea! She will fight you but you can do it with help. if you've got a catheter tipped syringe it will be easier.

@casportpony is my dosage right? I hope so because that's what I've been giving Eva my constantly eggbound girl!
