Well I'm back finally.... Rough go here.... What on earth would cause them to be so so sick....(is it the combo of coccidiosis and parasites???)... If you have seen something so very similar... I was wondering if perhaps you know what it is.... The ups and downs with this poor pea have been staggering!...
He did fairly well yesterday, got him in to the vets, didn't get any further answers, but got a lot of good, helpful, general info... And basically got told to " stay the course"... Btw... Yes,feeding with a syringe, vet seemed fine with it, and I didn't know to ask about tube feeding... Interesting...
This am he was horrible!!!.... Sounded awful!!!.... Gurgle and congested , kind of coughing, and throwing his head around... He did gets some fluids and all meds and he's up and about, but doing poorly. By noon, he was a bit better, and not as congested sounding. At dinner, he rallied nicely, did well, no congestion sounds.... See what the am brings...
I was interested in the numbers you both put forth, for what the daily input should be... I will surely compare that, with what the vet told me , in the am.... Just too tired to think anymore just now...
Really really really appreciate you both!!!... So glad I've joined backyardchickens
If you have any tips regarding the congestion sounds.... I'd love to hear your thoughts!... Thanks so very much!!!....
