I had posted about my BR Auntie breathing abnormally, but didn't give out enough info. Today I gave her some garlic because it's the best anibiotic if it's Respiratory Infection. This sounds strange, but the only way I can explain the sound is drinking out of a straw. Kind of a crackle.

Anyway, here are the symptoms.

She does it when she inhales and exhales.

It happens when I hold her, or if she runs around. Not sure when she is just sitting.

Her breathing sounds a bit labored, but I'm not really sure.

Thanks for helping!

BTW She hated the garlic. I had to open her beak and force it down her! Poor girl.
