Hello, I have a sick goose for about a week now and am attempting to diagnosis him. He is eating and drinking still.
He went to the vet and got a blood test and heavy metal test. The blood test came back and said he had anemia which tracks considering his beak is looking poor. Still waiting on the heavy metal test.
The vet ended up prescribing him Clavacillin and Carprofen which he has been steady taking for two days. I’ve also begun administering activated charcoal in offset periods to the medication in an attempt to filter out his system without filtering out the medication.
I’ve also started giving him SafeGuard horse paste which as far as I know has no interactions with his current prescriptions. If anyone knows otherwise, please let me know.
Anyways here are his symptoms and a photo of the chap if anyone can provide some more useful information.
Symptoms:
Falling over/Poor balance
Can’t hold up neck very well
Occasional Diarrhea
Dry Beak
Drooling
Lazy Jaw
Does anyone know what could be wrong with him? Also, Does anyone know what the resting heart rate of a goose should be?
