Loss of voice? Seems ok otherwise.

Thanks very much.
We've got the Nystatin in her drinking water but it might take a while to kick in.

Just wondering - since yesterday she's starting doing the 'quiet! danger!' or 'I'm scared but I like these pats' purr.
Not sure if it could also be a 'raspy breathing' or 'I'm in pain' sound. I might try posting the videos in the behaviors forum too.
Other than that, she's acting okay but we can't get her to stop making this sound for an hour or two after she starts.

Our current plan is one more night inside, on the antifungal, then outside tomorrow, as the weather finally turns to not rain for a few days. It's been four days, and not much has changed other than she's lost even more of her voice.

 
Sounds good!
Keep me posted on how she's doing.
Thanks so much for your help!

We think she's doing well. She's been outside for four days, and her voice is almost back to normal. Her health seemed to turn a corner yesterday for the better.
That being said, she seems to still lose a bit of her voice, because she won't stop talking now she's back with her girls. More than before she lost it.

We put her outside on temperate weather with little to no rain. We also bought something to add to their water that has the copper sulfate for fungal infections since we knew it would be hard to get the nystatin in her when she's out with her girls, and more a preventative in case the other girls were catching anything from her. And we've done two days with a bit of yogurt after the antibacterials/antifungal treatment.

Her comb has been more pale since returning outside, so we're trying a bit of coconut oil in case it's just the drier weather.

Still not sure what caused the voice loss, but we accounted for most things (internal mites was the next thing we were considering treating for), and guessing it was some bacteria/fungus from 3 weeks of rain and some dusty bedding.
