Hi all, I am a newbie member living in New Zealand.
2 days before Christmas, I was chosen by an adorable baby 'teil, whom I guess to be around 10-12
weeks old.
Last week, it has had a bacterial infection, which was treated with Baytril injections. We do not have specialist avian vets here, but the vet I have chosen is extremely experienced.
Since having baby Spirit, it has always seemed very light weight, and it's keel has always been noticeable. Now it's keel is extremely sharp.
Baby seems to be reasonably happy, clear eyes and nares, and active. green poop, with no staining in the urates.
I see it eating seed, but it never seems to be much.
Next week, I will be adding a variety of fruits and veges to the shopping cart, for fresh chop, to encourage new tastes.
How can I fatten baby up? I'm feeling very stressed, as I don't want to lose this precious
young soul.
