I did ask the vet about Baytril (seems everyone uses it), and he wasn't too keen on it for Gimli's problems. He's a respected avian vet, so I'll take his advice.
I did order some of the Boost, and I'm wondering if it really does everything it says it does, whether I should put all of my birds on it for a bit?
I'm beginning to think it may be this. I'm starting to get more nystatin down him, than on him. It also seems Gimli vomits less after a successful dosage. At first he'd fight me, and I'm afraid most of the meds ran down his feathers.Poor Gimli. I fostered a sun conure from a rescue who developed a yeast infection and was throwing up as well. It took the full course of nystatin before she finally stopped vomiting. She didnt stop vomiting until the last dose. I hope Gimli also has a yeast infection.
That's a good sign!!! Keep that watchful eye looking for the slightest change.I'm beginning to think it may be this. I'm starting to get more nystatin down him, than on him.

Now that I'm getting better at medicating, he's vomiting less.
Praying, praying.....please let the nystatin do the trick!
