Hey guys. So I recently purchased a pair of golden pheasants (keeping an eye out for more females since I know it's best to have a few). But a few days after purchase the female suddenly died.
I kept an eye on the male and other than an internal eye injury meaning he may be blind in it he seemed ok. But when I went out right now to say good night he was laying on the ground in the corner on his side.
I tried standing him up and getting him to drink water. He stood and took two sips, than feel down exhausted on his side and kind of shook.
I've taken him inside and have him on my lap and am syringe feeding him water, kitten food residue, and honey to get him his energy back.
He will suddenly stand with his fringe displaying, eyes closed, and face to the floor and do erratic Bob's as if hes trying to eat food that's not there. Then he sits down in a fluffy ball and will let me continue syringe feeding him.
Hes drinking well. No choking and actively seeks out the liquid with his tounge. But he hasn't opened his eyes once since I brought him in. When I first picked him up he randomly shook and thrashed but I'm not sure if that's due to what ever hes suffering from or the fact that he hadn't been handle before. And I'm unsure if the imaginary feeding is a good or bad sign.
Can anyone help?
