I've posted in another sub forum on here about the health issues my Meyers parrot Trinity was having. She was having diarrhea and when I took her to the vet, the vet noted that her droppings had a high yeast count and a low good bacteria count. She was prescribed some medication and it worked somewhat as long as Trinity kept taking it. I decided apple cider vinegar and probiotics might help get things improving faster and less stressful than taking her back to the vet and medicating her. It definitely helped.
Due to reasons I'm not too interested in getting into, my former roommate had fallen off the wagon and started drinking heavily (in my opinion I don't know what counts as heavy for an alcoholic) and admitted that they would vape in their room despite me making it clear that any smoking of any kind has to be done outside and away from the bird and then initially agreeing to this.
It's been about three days since they left and now Trinity's issues disappeared overnight. Literally. I've been keeping a close eye on her droppings and yesterday it was still the wrong colour and while more solid, still not a healthy solid. This morning it was like there was never any problems.
Could the vape or alcohol fumes have contributed to whatever made her sick? The roommate kept the door shut for all of this but parrot lungs are a lot more sensitive than human lungs
