Sorry I didn't get back last evening. The visit went pretty well. He gave him an exam & took a lot of blood.He weighed him. He does not feel it is zinc or lead, he said a bird would die quickly from lead. But he did both tests by my request. And a CBC. The samples are being sent to LSU. He looked into his eyes, and checked his throat.He said his papillae looked good. He examined the extent of his barbering:(...and asked a lot of questions. Like if there were any changes in his environment, etc. He did not like the look of his poop. So now we wait for the test results. Thanks for your prayers and good thoughts. It kept us both calm.
Did he recommend anything in the meantime?

Oh Carole,

I hope everything comes back okay, and perhaps he was just having a few off days and has sorted himself. We can only hope.

You're lovely and he's lucky too have you :hug8:

Carole, when did the barbering start? I was just wondering if it might have started when Yuna joined your flock? It might be sexual frustration...just a thought.

Logged in to check on the little man. Hope all goes well with the results. :hug8: Did your vet indicate when he might have any word from the lab?

I hope that the results are able to shed some light on the cause.
