Baytril was not his first choice, it's actually the second antibiotic we tried since the ceftazidime was ineffective. His condition was declining rapidly, and I've acted as best I can in the situation. He is improving although he seems like he's in a bad mood, I can't blame the guy.
I think...
Words of wisdom for the day.
Have read some of the most trifling, obnoxious and uneducated things today. Here and elsewhere. Why ask for help if you can't take advice? I just needed to get that out. Thanks.
That's all. Carry on.
Edit: sorry venting I should have just kept that to
myself
Absolutely no light at night.
Check out ceramic heat emitters if your getting below 50, but no light.
Sometimes they go dark to absorb heat, then back to green. Could be what's going on. It took about a month for my guy to really get in a predictable daily groove. He/she may still be adjusting.
I really want to let this go, but I did read up on E. invadens, and clearly that is a nastier beast than I gave credit. I'm sorry if I minimized that. Ugly bug there. Nothing to mess around about.
@jajeanpierre it sounds like you are an avid bird watcher/studier. Right now I'm trying to learn turkey calls. My father in law is a turkey hunter - true blue. The real
turkey hunters know turkeys like you do your parrots...how they think, where they eat, the sounds they make when thy are...
It's easier and cleaner than you would think. I don't feel bad about it, but some people really think I'm pretty awful and give me a hard time. I always figured every one I raise in a good environment is one kept out of a factory farm.
Their call scared the daylights out of me, lol. The white ones are incredibly gorgeous. I have often thought of getting one. I'm just afraid it would eat the roof off my car. They can be crazy destructive...
I kinda gave up on roosters. I raise both free range egg and meat chickens and turkeys. Sorry if that gives you bird lovers the willies!! Lol. They beat up my hens pretty bad, or each other, and were just generally a pain so I swore off of them. I raise about 50 chickens to eat, and about 15-20...
They've blasted baby chicks right in front of my numerous times. A hawk is a killing machine! I can't get too mad I really think they are the coolest. I raise a few extra chickens cuz I know I will lose a few every year.
