So I got the blood panels back for Lincoln and the vet did a lot of research for eclectus specifically before calling me hence why it took so long, but for the most part he is okay. Calcium is low which is a thing I've been struggling with for awhile with him. However she did note that his monocyte white blood cells were extremely elevated which she mentioned appears to be relatively common among eclectus with feather issues. She said a lot of fancy science words that I cant really remember but at this point she's doing more research and reaching out to other people on the avian board on information and other labs we could do for him and is gonna call me back monday/Tuesday. It doesn't look like there's anything contagious though. I'm debating if I should hold off on opening the shop until we can do the additional panels or just go ahead and open up. At this point if I do need to do the lab which sounds like it's going to be expensive, I'm going to need the money and I have no form of income right now.
I'm at a loss to do right now. I'm making some eggs to hopefully help with the calcium a bit but I guess I can only wait to see what the vet contacts me with. I'll do anything for this bird but I don't have a lot of money right now...
