hi, i've brought my sick budgie to the vet a few days ago and the vet gave us a powdered suppliment/food by VETAFARM (critta care) which provides nutritional support for sick and injured birds. the vet told us to try and force feed her as she isn't tamed. i tried placing the powder mixed with water into a syringe to feed her when i use a towel to hand hold her but she refuses to open her mouth and swallow any of it. i'm really worried for her health as im also giving her 3 other types of medicine as prescribed by the doc.
are there any other ways i can encourage/feed her? if it helps she's apparently malnutrioned as stated by the vet but she hardly eats anything i feed her be it apples or water spinach and only takes small nibbles all along
