Thank you for the photos and post! If I may, Walmart sells "ALOE VERA Juice". Your baby should be sprayed heavily every 2-3 days. Thank you Rev Jayd

When I came home on liberty in 1964, my girlfriend's father came to me (we were both over 18), and he told me "If you are dressed in your uniform, you cannot take my daughter out". With respect, I replied "Yes sir". The gentleman forgot to realize I had a military haircut and a US NAVY tattoo. This has been burned in my memory for years now. I am no hero but I stood beside those who were and called them brother...

I couldn't leave my home to get a Poppy, I got one for free at this address: https://poppyinmemory.usaaclo.../?EID=mkt_ent_md_mem_0518-08

To this great Forum, I have and always will respect and honor the members who have contributed to it's growth and purpose. I'm sorry if my post has offended anyone. I will refrain from any such posts in the future. Rev Jayd

Blessed be the members of this Forum and Blessed be the people of this World who fought for it. Thank you all for all you gave to this Country's Freedom and much more the Freedom of our World.....Pray to the one you call God, and to those who do not believe in a God, give thanks to our Freedom.... Thank You for Your Service... Amen... Rev Jay

Again, I would like to thank everyone for their prayers..

I wish to say something before it's to late. My whole life I've tried to devote it to others, humans, pets, any living creature. When I was on the Forums before, due to meds and illness, I hurt a lot of people, I'm sorry, but even then I was standing up for my friends of the Forum. At the time one of the members said something not proper about our son who was just wounded (Army) and something bad about our Country, that's when I lost it...I Apologize.. I have ministered most of my life, Maggie and I, When I lost the ability to move, I only had the Net, My communications (tongue) came to almost a stand when I could no longer speak. When my banned was lifted I didn't expect to be greeted with a open arm by all but I've stuck by my goal of only offering my help and happiness, I am not in competition with anyone, but I hear the messages you send my way, so I'll do my best not to answer any post's until someone else does first. I still hold the utmost respect for al of you, everyone has a lot to offer. So in ending, no more updates, or crying or drama... God Bless You All, Reverend Jay d May God Be with You...

Welcome, looking forward to your posts. I wish I could help you..😥

They start to fledge at about 12 weeks....he should be on solid by then. He should be eating around 50ccs per feeding. ....will post more when I wake up LOL....

Welcome, we really enjoyed your post, (we also enjoy photos.) When a grey is involved, ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY....This is a typical grey occurrence. Before replying, I'm going to wait and let other members reply...Thanks Rev Jayd

Our prayers be with you.. You gave her love. Amen.. Rev Jayd...

Posted April 30, 2009 PROVENTRICULAR DILATATION SYNDROME General Information First recognized in the early 1970’s, proventricular dilation was originally called “Macaw Wasting Diseaseâ€, as the disease caused a gradual wasting of macaws. Since that time, the disease has affected many species of pet birds. What is proventricular dilatation syndrome? Proventricular dilatation syndrome is a condition affecting the nerves supplying the gastrointestinal tract of birds, mainly the proventriculus or true stomach. Nerves supplying other organs may also be affected, and in some cases an encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) may also occur. What causes the condition? It has recently been confirmed that a virus causes this condition. Microscopically, the affected nerves are inflamed with an infiltration of certain types of white blood cells. What are the signs of birds affected with proventricular dilatation syndrome? The old name, “Macaw Wasting Diseaseâ€, aptly describes affected birds. Birds have a lack of appetite, show regurgitation, may pass undigested seeds in their feces, and exhibit weight loss. Neurologic signs such as seizures or tremors may also occur. No one sign is definitive for the condition; however, proventricular dilatation should be suspected in birds with chronic unexplained regurgitation, weight loss, and any time undigested foods are seen in the droppings. How is the condition diagnosed? Clinical signs may suggest proventricular dilatation syndrome. Radiographs (X-rays), including a barium series may also strongly suggest the condition. The only definitive way to diagnose proventricular dilation syndrome is with a biopsy of the proventriculus, although a biopsy of the crop (grinding part of the stomach), which is easier to perform, is accurate most of the time. A serum test is under development. How do birds acquire the condition? Because we don’t know the exact cause, it’s unknown how the condition is spread. Not all birds that are exposed to an infected bird will develop the condition, although the condition can spread throughout a flock of birds. To be safe, birds diagnosed with proventricular dilatation syndrome should be isolated from healthy birds. Can the disease be treated? Finally, there is a medication that is showing some promise in treating PDD, if it is detected in the early stages. If left untreated, PDD is always fatal.<br><br>Post edited by: Dave007, at: 2009/04/30 18:05

Jeannine Miesle M.A., M. Ed. (Excerpt ... https://www.beautyofbirds.com/pdd.html ) The Avian Bornavirus (ABV) is an enveloped, negative-stranded, RNA-virus genome. Avian l Ganglioneuritis (PDD) is a fatal, inflammatory wasting disease affecting mostly birds in the psittacine family (Order Psittaciformes). 1 It is a disorder in which "inflammation of the central, peripheral, and autonomic nervous systems is associated with gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction and neurologic signs." 2 In clinical terms, Avian Bornaviral Ganglioneuritis is "a lymphocytic-plasmacytic gangioneuritis of the nerve plexi of the crop, proventriculus, ventriculus, and duodenum. " 23,2
