Help-Metronidazole water dose?

Classic yellow blackhead poo. Note that the color of the head is not black, it's actually nice and pink. ;)

Note: This is not my bird, it's one I sold several years ago. It was one that was raised in a brooder, off the ground, and was healthy, parasite/protozoa free when it left here.

The owner called saying that both were looking sick a few days ago. I told him I would come get the dead one and the one still alive and try to save it, but it died four hours after I brought it home.

Symptoms:
  • Depressed
  • Dropped wings
  • Not eating
  • Weak
  • Thin
  • Yellow liquid poop
  • Dark green cecal poop with blood

Here he is looking very stoic three hours before he died. You can't tell from the picture, but he's about 1kg (2.2 pounds) underweight.


Here is a poop picture, but it looked much more yellow than it does here.

Here are the necropsy pictures from one of the peacocks.



Liver and cecal pouches


Contents of cecal pouch - black liquid poop, NOT normal!


Inside of cecal pouch




Liver with the blackhead spots and I think the black edges are necrotic

Cecum looks like caseous material on 2nd look. But liver is diagnostic. Poor bird.
