Skye seems to be fine. The symptoms are pretty clear. The thing is, they either get the disease or are carriers. I don't think the other two had it. Their poop was fine. They weren't losing weight either. Those are the 2 main symptoms.
I am soaking the cage and some of the things I'm keeping in an antibacterial solution that is used by hospitals, and have Skye in a new cage. I threw out the toys. She's happier. I moved her to where she can see us a lot.
"PLEASE got to a parrot/bird rescue. Just like puppy mills there are bird mills and this is why your little one was sick. Pet Stores get their birds from mills just as they do dogs. The bird mills are just as bad or worse then puppy mills."
Elaine - you are so right! The woman who works at Petland told me not to buy from them for a few months. This batch is probably sick. The first thing I thought of was bird mills.
Thanks for your sympathy guys! I know who to come to! Again, I have learned
the lesson that love doesn't come free! It takes a lot of work.
