I’ve taken my young Mac to 4 different vets (including an avian vet 6 hours away), no one is sure of what’s going on, or how this can be fixed - I’ve been told she might just be a bird that has this problem for life (I’m not taking that as an answer)
she has had discharge in large amounts coming from one nare since about 3 weeks of age, she hatched and was raised during the bushfires and she would roughly be about 4 months of age now. The frequency of the mucus has settled since, but on cooler nights it has come back. The mucus has always been clear but the consistency has changed back and forth between thin and runny to a bit thicker. I’m going to be sending my avian vet an email tomorrow to ask if we can get more testing done and get to the bottom of this, and I will attach the pathology report done on her nasal mucus. She has been on baytril antibiotic twice, once when this first started and second time a month ago after receiving results back. I’m now trying her on Sulfa3 to see if it helps. Has anyone had a similar problem and gotten answers? Does anyone have any suggestions?
