Heh, gang. Need guidance (as usual). For once, it doesn't matter what color you see, it's the size diff. The lavender was equally as small and passed this a.m. i thought this littliest one was going too, but it perked up after some scrambled eggs and a bolus of nutridrench. It slept curled up under my chin after constant loud chirping. The bigger one kept trying to lay on it,which is how I found the violet when it died. I have some kid size footies for keets, so slipped it in one and it snuggled under my chin.
Both of them have light colored, loose, wet stool now. I almost want to say it smells faintly like human c-diff, but can't swear to it.- something that small doesnt cast much of a lingering odor.
Now-the littlest was staggering and sleepy this a.m. The bigger had a bit more energy. As I said, they perked up after the eggs,and started eating their crumbles after that. So we're eating and drinking and brighter eyed but poopy. I picked up some corid 20% powder, bc it seems like it's something you shld have when you need it. But - there's no blood in the stool, haven't noticed mucus, it's formed but wet...if I'm reading this list correctly, I should start the corid, yes? I've already rinsed their water bottle out and changed the water, does there need to be a delay in starting since they've had nutridrench & B complex in water all day? Little one has been very thirsty. And chances are I should treat those in coop as well?
I did make up my mind and received another batch of eggs today, and would like to discuss that as well, but for now they're resting upright, incubator is running, and 3 hygrometers are being salt tested. Will gather thoughts on eggs after dinner.
