1) Ameracuna 5 years old. Day 5, stopped eating and drinking yesterday. Thinner than the other (4).
2) Isolating and fluffing day 1, immediately quarantined. Wanted to get out day 1-2, then became listless but was still eating and drinking. Electrolytes, vitamins, oregano, turmeric, feed and scrambled eggs. whatever I could get her to eat.
3) Day 5
4) 4 other birds seem ok. Lost two previous to this in the past weeks. Tore coop apart, bleached and vinegar and dried it out and keep everyone out for 2 days. Now the 4 are back in and this one is isolated.
5) No Trauma, just normal then all came down with something that has stopped them in their tracks and killed them in 5-7 days.
6) Unsure of anything that happened besides something is killing them. This one will get a necropsy if it doesn’t make it. I didn’t know about that option with the other two.
7) Today nothing should I force feed it?
8) Very little poop if any, not eating
9) Just natural herbs stated above and electrolytes and wormer/vitamins from the feed store.
10 ) Need antibiodics to try. Vet busy and cannot take birds right now. 2 weeks out so this one needs help.
11) If you have a picture of the wound or condition, please post it. It may help.
12) In a crate on the porch with a light. Using papertowel bedding so I can clean it frequently.
