Hello everyone! Hope all is well. I am truly looking for help since no vet has been able to help me properly so far and it's making me panic soooo much. A few months ago, my cockateil had something itching him to the extent of bleeding himself. I sprayed a medicine on him and gave him a good powdered antibiotic and he was doing well after. A few months later, he began fluffing up, gradually he had the crown feathers gone. Then gradually his wings dropped and his poop had food seeds in it. And now his poop is very tiny with a lot of surrounding liquid. What the vets told me is that it's just an intestinal infection and should go away with an antibiotic for five days and that I should put him a plate of sand for him to cleanse his intestines like the wild ones do. And yet there is no improvement. From my realization, where I am most vets are only or mainly familiar with cats and dogs here. I can't find anyone that would completely understand his situation. He keeps losing weight....his diet is mainly seed based and I sometimes add some honey or little lemon juice in his water since he doesn't accept any fruits or vegetables. I have read alot and continue reading but it all just makes me worry more. And obviously where I am no one is really familiar of what needs to be done.
