Yesterday we had a serious emergency. Scooter (BE2) managed to break off her upper beak. Serious amounts of blood. My daughter and I rushed her to the animal hospital that does critical care for birds. They managed to get the blooding stopped and redid her upper beak. They also gave me Baytril to give to her twice a day. Her feathers are covered in blood. She is very stressed out from all that she had to go through yesterday. However today she is eating and drinking some and doing a lot of sleeping. I have a couple of questions How do I get the Baytril in her instead of all over me or her? And is there any way to get the blood out of her feathers without stressing her out more? I am also concerned with her stress level in trying to give her the antibiotic. I sure would appreciate any advice that you can give me. I cried most of the day yesterday and found myself crying again this morning. Scooter bit me twice yesterday out of sheer terror and I felt so bad that we had to stress her out more. Please help.
