We have a Guinea who is razor thin - just found out today when I picked everyone up to worm them
He is totally wasted away under those beautiful feathers of his
his beak is long, too - too long
and I noticed the other day that he moves very fast, from place to place, where he would usually have been a very confident, deliberate bird
it is almost as if he is hectic
the vet did not find any parasites in our fecal float, even though I can't say for sure that his poo was in there - it was just to check the flock
also, I do see him eating millet at treat time
he was free ranging today and seems to keep up with the flock and pick at grasses, but I can tell he is not as free as normal (head posture)
he is very dear to us - please let me know if you have any ideas what could be wrong with him or what I could do to save him!!!
he is so thin, it scares me
Thank you!
