I have a baby Congo grey that was suffering from slow crop. His formula was taking twice as long to pass. I put him on straight liquid (pedialite) to flush him out. After a couple doses I started feeding him thin formula and he is passing it well. I have been slowly thickening back to what it should be. I thought the problem was fixed bit when i got up this morning he was leaning to one side and had no feeding response. I got him to eat some reg. thickness formula but very little. His crop shrank down but he only went to the bathroom once. The next feeding he had a response and ate better, half what he normally gets. I am concerned because he is still drooping one side and is making very little noise. He has only popped three times all day with no feces, all urine and rates. Is he leaning because he is weak or is it some other issue? The vet is worried that an antibiotic at this point would be to much for him to handle. Any advice is appreciated, please help save my baby. Thanks
