Sorry I wrote that wrong her bones should have been hollow but most of her bones showed a build up because her body was trying everything to help get get better. Her Calcium was really low and her body was taking it from her bones.

Just wanted to you guys a update she has taken a turn for the worse. Two days ago I noticed her vent area getting swollen and today her feet are blue and she is opened mouth breathing again. Her feet are cold and she is not drinking or eating. She was doing so well and than BAM.. I am worried sick.. She just wants to sleep. We are taking her to the vet at 5:00 today. Just so worried.

Maybe they can squeeze you in sounds like an emergency. I will keep you all in my prayers. I know that feeling very well.

I just read through this whole thread and am so disappointed that she is unwell again. I know you must be heartbroken. Sending lots of good vibes your way. I also noticed in the photo you posted that she has what looks like corn cob bedding on her playstand. I just wanted to mention that it is known to cause aspergillosis in parrots. I'd hate for you to have more issues on top of what is already going on with her :heart: :hug8: :heart:

Just read through the whole thread. What an up and down story :( I'm so sorry that you're going through this. You're trying your hardest and you're giving her as much love as you can. Please let us know how she gets on at the vets again. Poor baby. I will bet thinking of you and Phoenix tonight!
