I took My 4 year old male eclectus to the vet this morning as his feathers have been seeming ratty and dull to me over the last month or so. He’s definitely moulting but wanted to ensure all was well. Vet agreed that he seems unkempt featherwise and we did fecal analysis and full blood panel to check up on him.
Dr. Remarked all was pretty well with blood work but his potassium and sodium levels are high. Potassium is 5.4. (Normal range 3.5-4.3) sodium 150 ( normal range 130-145).
Dr gave omega supplements. Suggested some fruits and veggies and sent us on our way.
At the time I was thinking that the values were LOW not HIGH so the nutritional advice made since I guess but now in reading the discharge and that the values are high I’m just left a little puzzled.
anyone had experience with similar bloodwork? Any further thoughts/ personal experiences?
Just worried about my buddy.
