Thanks all. Spock has been seeing a vet almost every two weeks since Dec 09, he has 5 vets now.LoL Were guaranteed a visit on Thur's after 4pm! These vets receive have received not only our fid's, but our rescue's and re-home's. Spock's cut down on some of his food intake. I think Dan might be right on Spock's back muscles, they seem to be well developed, I living room/kitchen flight is around 50=60', he'll do this in set's of 2 or 3, 10 or more times a day, 5-6 full house length flights of 50' 3-5 times.[that,s 100' per flight! with out tail feathers!] When I say "Spock's cut down on his eating", his normal daily food consumption is: Breakfast= 2 tbs of smash, 1/3 tsp peanut butter + supplement, 1 to 2 tsp brn rice, lentils/split peas 1 tsp, will snack on a tsp of seed. mid-morning snack, he'll snack on left over breakfast, 10+ cheerio's soaked in 2 table spoons rice milk, Lunch: 1/4 tuna sandwich on whole grain bread, plate of veggies, and a few seeds, Dinner: Smash, pasta with tomato sauce, beans, sometimes cooked veggies. Bed time snack: bite of fruit, a couple bites of fresh sweet potato's.
Because of his Hypoglycemia, he eats carbs and burn carbs, in a viscous cycle. Once we can determine his diet balance, we hope his metabolism will slow down, so he won't wear out his body. Spock is a large boned Grey, he should weigh around 520 +grams, he's skinny. Hope this will change.
If I missed anything, just ask!
