Hi all! I have a hahns macaw and over the winter I noticed my bird had a runny nose and her breathing sounded congested but otherwise acted normal. She was in and out of the vets office for a couple months because nothing seemed to work in clearing up the runny nose. It only affected one nostril at a time and sometimes it would get blocked. She was on antibiotics, was tested for chronic diseases and was also put on a long dose of antifungal. She was at a loss on what could be causing her runny and sniffly nose. It did clear up once I traveled somewhere warmer with her and she has been fine until a few weeks ago I noticed she sometimes will have a runny nose again. It comes and goes but she is acting normal, eating and drinking, and her poops all look normal. It’s like a repeat of the winter.
I am not sure if it is weather related because it’s gotten cold here. Or if it could be allergies, or a mix of the two or something else entirely. Anyone else here with a Hahns that has dealt with something similar? I’m at a loss.
