Hey everyone,
So I noticed this evening that my almost two year old GCC had an odor to her, which is unusual. So after some examination I found the source to be her vent area, and it has a yeasty type smell to it. I know birds can get yeast infections, however I can't seem to find more information.
She is eating normal and I have not noticed any changes in her behavior. I am going to call my avian vet ASAP in the morning, but in the meantime, is there anything I can do or should know? Basically all I am going off of is that her vent has an off smell. Can anyone point me in the direction of additional info or share past experiences? I am pretty concerned at the moment.
