Someone please HELP!!!!!!!

I agree with Dawg and Eggcessive.  Treat for Coccidiosis.  Get Corid or Sulfadimethoxine.  It's the most common illness in young birds.

Ok. I sent my husband to go get some. She just stands there with her eyes closed. I give her water through a 3cc syringe and also she ate a scrambled egg earlier. Any other suggestions??

In the mean time, Just keep her eating and drinking. I would give her any thing she wants to eat-just to get food in to her. Even cake.

Ok.. I have the liquid. Is she moderate dosage?

The preventative dose (.006%) for Corid Powder is 1/3 teaspoon.
The preventative dose (.006%) for Corid liquid is 1/2 teaspoon.

The moderate outbreak dose (.012%) for Corid Powder is 3/4 teaspoon.
The moderate outbreak dose (.012%) for Corid liquid is 1 teaspoon.

The severe outbreak dose (.024%) for Corid Powder is 1.5 teaspoons
The severe outbreak dose (.024%) for Corid liquid is 2 teaspoon.

Always use the severe dosage for an outbreak-- 2 tsp of liquid or 1.5 tsp of the powder per gallon.

Give her a drop or two of the liquid undiluted just to get some in her now. You can do it again tomorrow if she won't drink well. Corid will not harm her even if her problem isn't cocci. After 5 day treatment, you will want to give her vitamins and probiotics for several more days.

Thank you.

Thank you. I just mixed some up and put it in her water. I gave some to her in a syringe so at least I know she got some. Thank you once again.

Eggcessive....is it ok to de worm her and use corid at the same time. I will be using Valbazen for her.

 

[Eggcessive]

I would worm after completing the Corid, since two treatments at once seems a little harsh.

Ok sounds good. Hopefully she pulls through this. She's a sweet bird.

I just checked on her. She will not lay down even with the light off. That has to be a sign of something, but I just don't know what. Anybody have any suggestions. I got her to eat last night some of her food and she drank a good couple of slips of water. but I am still worried about her
