Hi, I just rescued a grey from awful home.My bird was 15 % under weight and has tested pos for yeast and some e coli.The vet said it was ok to try and go the holistic route. I am putting apple cider vinagar in her water and probiotics in her food when I can get her to eat it. The vet said to keep her warm and we did but that created another problem we were not aware of. It irritated her sinuses and she started to sneeze.I then got a warm vaporizer. This has helped alot.We now have her newly bought double macaw cage ( that I think she adores now ) back in the room off to the living room. She seems to love it there but I am worried that she is not getting enough sleep. If I move her she wont get the attention in the daytime that I know they need. I cover her at 7:00 pm when it gets dark but she hears everyone talking in the next room and will not go to sleep. She wakes at about 6 or 7 when everyone is getting up and wont stay a sleep. Is this ok ?
