Hi everyone. This morning I found my lovebird to be in a frightened stage and he could not use grip with his right feet. Usually, when he’s scared, this would happen and he is usually fine after I covered his cage and let him calm down.
However after I did the same, around half an hour later I found him spinning around in circles in his cage. His head is tilted to the left side. His usual vet is not in, as an emergency I went to another vet that treats birds too and he prescribed me antibiotics baytril, nystatin as well as steroids.
Does anyone have any experience in treating birds with neurological issue with steroids or other medicine? I have fed him the antibiotics and anti fungi and to start with the steroids tomorrow if he doe not gets well.
A little about his background, he has chronic regurgitating issue. It had been on and off for years. The most recent he went to the vet was 3 weeks ago, where we did an in-house crop swap to find no bacterial, no yeast but found white blood cells. We were given amoxicillin, meloxicam.
I will be bringing him to his usual vet tomorrow morning for a second opinion.
Appreciate if anyone could share their experience how neurological in birds were treated and anyone have experience in using steroids in birds.
I have upload his video on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/shorts/TEgryH3wlwY?feature=share
