all the vets were just saying she is moulting, and it's normal for kaks to even go bold, but sure they were pulling my leg!

the drive is going to kill me

what an ordeal
we have come home with some crazy powder
now he wasn't sure what it is, but had his suspensions
he couldn't pinpoint it without a stool test,
but couldn't do a stool test while undergoing treatment, so we went with doing treatment first
it's going to last 45 days, going to get very lonely on her own
i have to wear a mask around her now, and change my clothes every time i go in the room
as it's easily transmittable to humans and frankly, could kill me!
if i get a head ache or neck ache have to go to the doctors, i'm a strong cookie though so will be fine :p

he said it's likely the whole flock has it :| and one option is to have them all destroyed

he said there no way he can ever get rid off it, but can make the level low it won't affect them unless they get stressed ect ect
i know it started with a 'P' and we was saying it i had the word Psittacosis in my head- so i think that could be it!
i have enough powder for 10 days, so will ask when i ring for my next packet
mango is allowed no veg and just seed to make sure she drinks as much off it as possiable

the surgery was very nice & clean
fingers crossed :)







my mum threw the most stupid fit ever saying mango was not allowed in another room- tuff luck
i'm not wasting my money
if i'm going to do, i'm going to do it right!

So did he write the diagnosis on a paper so you could look it up? Good luck on this. Do you have any idea where you could have picked it up...the birds I mean.
