Doctor, I have a 7 year old Cockateil and he has been passing watery stools since last Thursday. The feacus seems like bits and scattered and the urea is webby and white. Sometimes it’s just water and nothing else. I tried an antibiotic ofloxacin and metranidazole for 2 days. It seemed like getting better but back to being watery again. Will the triple c and symbiotic help? If yes, how and when should these be given? Kindly advice

Hi there. thanks for the video. it was informative. 1- could you please tell what antibiotic can we keep at home just in case we need to start giving it to the bird if need be. there are hardlyy any good vets that deal with birds on regular basis and the vet that we have found in our city, it takes time to take the bird there at times appointment takes time and so forth... so what should be given to prevent the infection, if any, from aggravating?? 2- please tell what to give to parrots/baby parrots that start sneezing?
@vetafarm

Hi Tannia, thank you for watching our video! We manufacture several types of antibiotics but they all have different active ingredients to treat different illnesses so the effectiveness will depend on what is causing the illness. The only antibiotic that we manufacture that is available at most pet stores without having to see a veterinarian is called Triple C. It is effective against E Coli (Enteritis), Mycoplasma (Chronic Respiratory Disease) and Chlamydia (Psittacosis). Another really good product to have in your avian first aid kit is Poly Aid Plus. It contains sustained-release carbohydrates, vitamins, proteins, probiotics and electrolytes. It works by giving the bird enough energy to fight the illness off themselves. We also produce a product called Coccivet for treatment of Coccidiosis which can be purchased at most pet stores. The rest of our antibiotic treatments must be purchased through a veterinarian. We would still recommend getting any bird showing signs of illness to a veterinarian as soon as possible. Parrots/baby parrots that begin sneezing could be due to a number of reasons and we would recommend giving them Poly-Aid Plus and taking them to a veterinarian as soon as possible.

I am an experienced cockatiel owner for the past 25 years but this is only the second time one of my birds caught a cold and unfortunately my very 1st cockatiel died after treatment with antibiotics. I have 4 cockatiels now. This one is one of my original broods a real song bird. I went away on holiday for 2 weeks and left them in the care of another bird owner. Unfortunately they were not well looked after and their very large aviary was extremely dirty with little food and water on our return. I have separated him into a hospital unit & left him in full sunlight all day and covered him up for a solid 12 hr sleep. I placed honey in his water and changed it several times. Gave him amino acid enriched flax seed along with extra pumpkin, linseed, kale, milled Goji Berries in his regular seeds. He also was given apple and lettuce which he hardly touched. I am happy to say that he has picked up 100% and is calling to the other birds in hope of joining them. I think I should continue to isolate him for at least 3 days in total is that wise?
@vetafarm
6 жыл бұрын
Isolation is a good idea, just to be certain, in case it is something that can be spread from bird to bird. Sounds like you are taking very good care of him! If he is on a seed based diet, along with his fruit & vegetables, but no pellets, he may benefit from a Vitamin, Mineral and Amino Acid Supplement, such as Multivet.

Hi, thank you for watching and commenting on our video. These symptoms could be caused by quite a variety of different illnesses and therefore we would recommend travelling her to a veterinarian for appropriate diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, we would recommend following the instructions on this video to help her fight the illness. Poly-Aid Plus is not a treatment, but is a great product for sick birds as it contains sustained-release carbohydrates, proteins, probiotics and electrolytes. These help to give the bird some energy. We do have an over the counter broad spectrum antibiotic called Triple C, that is for the treatment of bacterial infections including E. Coli (Enteritis), Mycoplasma (Chronic Respiratory Disease) and Chlamydia (Psittacosis). If you feel that your budgerigar may have a respiratory infection, it might be worth giving her a course of this antibiotic. Please ensure that you follow up the antibiotic treatment with Synbiotic or Probotic to re-establish the gastrointestinal flora in the bird. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at sales@vetafarm.com.au or on (02)69330400.

Antibiotics and medicines abuse in doing a lot of damage in the long run...birds are becoming weak and hard to breed.

I have a parakeet that I had previously brought to a local veterinarian who had prescribed baytril for it symptoms or tail-bobbing, clear nasal discharge out of one nostril and slight wheezing. Dan Hibiki was on it for 10 day's it seemed to have minimize his symptoms if at all. He has had a reocorunce of the clear nasal discharge and seems to rubbing his beak and head in the same area and still has the tail-bobbing and very slight wheezing that becomes more pronounced when he is excited or has done something very strenuous. Is there something else I can try or get prescribed for him or do in the meantime? The vet said it could be anything from a vitamin-a deficiency to a seed being stuck in his nose/airways. I could not afford the more advanced lab test to determine what the true bacterium was and opted for the simple poop smear test at the time of his week almost two weeks ago. He still eat's, and get's groomed and grooms my cocktail Junior, and act's like his normal self. I just don't want him to be in any pain or suffering from his particular aliments.

Hi Nicholas, your vet sounds like they are fairly on the ball about birds which is good, I would advise not giving any more antibiotics until you know what bacterium you are dealing with, as you will start to build antibiotic resistance, and we definitely do not want that. Perhaps continue with the process you are doing now, as long as he is eating and drinking well and behaving normally I would not stress too much. If you can work on saving a little bit of money for a culture and sensitivity swab on the nasal fluid that would be much more beneficial.

Hello, if you can put your birds on to a pellet diet that will be better for their health. You can put the pellets in their food bowl with the seed and transition them to pellets. Some birds take longer to take to pellets than others and you don't want to starve your birds. Why are they on Baytril?

You should give the probiotic for 10 days after the antibiotic course. If your other cockatiels are "flat" looking I would recommend treating them with the antibiotics also. If they normally whistle and are not then they may be starting to get sick.

Dear Irteaza, it is difficult to know what antibiotics or treatment is required for your bird without doing a consultation and determining the extent of the injury to the bird. We would recommend you see your avian vet and have them examine the bird and it’s injury. Most importantly, ensure you keep the bird warm and hospitalised until it can be seen by a vet and you may also want to administer some Poly Aid Plus as a first aid supplement.

Unfortunately those symptoms can be a variety of illnesses and without a veterinary diagnosis it is very difficult to give you a treatment that we know would work! The Triple C will assist with Enteritis, Chronic Respiratory Disease and Chlamydia (Psittacosis). It is a broad spectrum antibiotic however it may or may not treat your birds illness depending on what is causing the illness. You would need a diagnosis for us to accurately give you the name of a treatment that would work. :)

Hello, the bird doesn't need to see while he is inside the box, we are covering him so he can rest and not be stressed by things on the outside. The hospital box is used when you can't take your bird to the vet straight away, so you can keep him in the box until you can take him to a veterinarian. If he is unwell you can use Vetafarm's Poly-Aid Plus until you can take him to a vet, this will provide him with electrolytes to keep him hydrated, carbohydrates and proteins to give him energy to survive.

Hello! I have a female cockatiel that has an upper respiratory infection.. She is currently on antibiotics and is doing great! however, I was just wondering if keeping her at an ambient temperature of 85 degrees constantly is a good idea or is it good to give her a littler break from the heat? Thank you in advance! She has a tendency to get active if I take her into a cooler part of the house with me (She is very clingy, wants to always be on my shoulder)

Hi, there's no harm in her having short breaks away to play and interact if she is feeling up to it. However if she were to want to rest and have a nap I would then take her back to the heat and allow her to rest in the warmth. I understand it can be very difficult to keep a healthy bird still, while she is on the mend, be sure to try to encourage her to rest plenty.

Hi, thank you for watching our video! If you believe that your bird has a respiratory infection, we would recommend taking it to a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment.

I found a grown bird outside. It had it’s head burried in its wing and I doubt it was able to fly. I took it home cause it’s going to get eaten by animals outside. There’s some brown liquid discharge from it and its feathers are puffy. It rarely moves its head. It tried flapping its wings but I don’t think it can fly since I almost stepped on it outside too. I followed the instructions of the hospital cage but what should I do now?

Hi, thank you for commenting. It sounds like the bird you found might be quite sick. We would recommend getting the bird to a veterinarian or a wildlife carer for treatment.

Hi Anthony, the hospital box has no set time frame for it's use. Ideally you will use the hospital box from the point you notice the bird is unwell until you feel the bird is better, I strongly recommend using a hospital box when you cannot get the bird to a veterinarian straight away. As for the heat source, I would suggest using it whilst the bird is in hospital. However if it is a hot day, you may not need it.

I would like to know if you have already done a video on this type of injury!? If not may you do one? When this happened, I couldn’t stop shaking and going back and forth in panic.

Give the enrofloxacin (baytril) alone, do not give with tetracycline at the same time. For lice and mites you can use Vetafarm Avian Insect Liquidator (A.I.L) but if she is sneezing it could be a respiratory infection, enrofloxacin (baytril) is very good for respiratory conditions. How much enrofloxacin (baytril) do you have? Do you have enough to give treatment for 14 days?

HI, i wanted to know what is going on with my zebra finch she is acting normal but the problem is she has no feathers under its wing and all round its belly. Now when i asked my friends about that they said that it is just changing her feathers but she laid an egg before so it is not small, so that is the first thing i want to know weather she is sick or is that normal and if she is then how to treat her. Now i have a second question i found out from a video that all of that could be caused by an egg stuck in her like she needs help getting it out , now if that is true how do i know for sure that it is an egg bound not a some kind of mite doing all of this. I have a final question when i was looking at it i saw something weird it had like little yellow balls and fluid in her neck now is that something i should worry about or is that normal PLEASE answer me ASAP this bird is very important to me. Thanks

Hello. Egg binding and egg laying does usually not result in feather loss. Is she plucking these feathers out herself? If she is not on a complete pellet/crumble diet I would suggest trying to convert her. Majority of the time feather loss can be attributed to either malnutrition or behavioural problems. If it is a behavioural trait she may pluck her feathers when she starts to go into breeding season, around spring. For the most part though a good diet will improve her feather production and vitality. If you cannot source or convert your finch to a pellet diet then a good quality multivitamin would be essential to use with a seed diet. As for the yellow balls of fluid in the neck. I would strongly suggest having her seen by an avian specialist vet. This does not sound normal...

Hi, that is ok, we are happy to help. I would suggest clipping your birds wings if you feel confident doing so, just until the birds understands where it is safe and not safe to fly. Head trauma is very serious and I would not let it keep happening. Clipping the cockatiels wings will prevent him from being able to get a lot of height off the ground and should help to stop it hitting it's head on the ceiling.

There are many potential causes for this to happen. Avian Gastric Yeast is a possibility, without having any diagnostic testing done it will be difficult to determine the cause of the undigested food. I would advise to take one of the sick birds to a veterinarian and ask for a fecal smear and crop swab to be done, and have a laboratory examine the samples for a definitive diagnosis.
