Loki has a vet appointment tomorrow

[Loki'sMinion]

Awwwww, now that is a FULL crop and a cute photo!

 

Congratulations!!!! Thanks for sharing this.

 

Thanks Dan! I think it is cute too

 

Like I mentioned in chat earlier, I am going to be keeping him on the pedialyte / Papaya mixture once a day around midday for the next couple days. It will help flush out anything else that needs to come out of his crop. As a matter of fact, I just got done feeding it to him..... he really loves Papaya

Aww what a cute picture

 

Good luck with Loki, I pray that he will bounce back and catch up with the weight he should be

Nothing warms the heart more than watching a fuzzy lil Grey baby wobble around playing and flapping after a nice warm meal

:cool:Good morning, I told you you could handle this!! Good for feeding him extra, A little Papaya every day or so, can never hurt, if your going to make Papaya one of his "Life Foods" then don't stop feeding it! If you haven't already done it, reduce his Pedialyte to 50/50 with distilled water. This is great news, We can breathe again!!!! Your doing a wonderful job with this little guy and the rest of your flock... xx Maggie and Jay

Thanks to you both for all your help during all this.

So glad he's bouncing back! He had me worried!

[JJsHoney]

I think Loki was just making sure you were on top of your game!! I'm so glad he is bouncing back

[Loki'sMinion]

He didn't regurg any of his food yesterday and I am VERY happy to say he had a 5 gram weight gain as of this morning's weigh in He consistently took between 20cc's and 25cc's at each feed.

 

Oh and I can see 3 tiny lil red pin feathers starting on his lil tush.

 

So at 6 weeks old (Today) he is 230 grams.

Thats wonderful news and congratulations on the little red buds popping out. That is so cute to watch the little red line start appearing.

 

Thanks for the continued updates here. Now, I want to see a photo of the little red buds.

[Jayd]

Will wait a few days until they are more noticeable and then I will get some pictures

[chezron]

Great advice from seasoned pros. You are lucky to have such a wonderful resource. I know I am! Good luck with Loki!

[Loki'sMinion]

Loki had a 10 gram weight gain from yesterday! 240 as of this morning and still averaging between 20cc's and 25cc's per feed

 

I truly believe he is bouncing back now and is going to be OK!!!

[danmcq]

Thats wonderful news and it sounds like Loki is back on track.

 

Thanks for the daily updates!

[Jayd]

All's well, thanks to your quick response and your knowledge! Thank You.. Jayd and Maggie

[Loki'sMinion]

OK I am going to update again today but after that I feel a weekly update should be sufficient.

 

Loki had another small gain as of this morning. He now weighs 242 grams, only up 2 grams from yesterday but at least it is a gain and not a loss He is very active and getting a ton of feathers on his wings now. The lil red tail buds are a bit more noticeable but I still want to wait a few days before taking a picture of them for you guys.

 

Thanks again to all of you for being there for Loki and I while he was sick.

 

Oh and we sent away for his DNA test, so I should know later this week if Loki is actually male or female

[danmcq]

The good progress continues.

 

Thanks for this latest update and looking forward to the weekly update.

[chezron]

I am so happy for you and Loki! I am so glad he is gaining weight and getting his feathers in. You must feel so relieved. <G>

[judygram]

Yes he is gaining and that is important right now, gosh I am excited to find out whether Loki is a he or a she, guess it doesn't matter to you but you just like to know, I am going to say Loki is a female.

[Loki'sMinion]

I am going to say Loki is a female.

 

We shall see

[Malikah]

What do you think Cheyenness? I had a feeling Kito was a female and I was right.

[Luvparrots]

I will say male.

[Loki'sMinion]

I am hoping for male. Either way, he/she is my baby and I love him/her to pieces already

Since Loki seems to have pulled through whatever it was and is improving, I have started a new thread on his progress and growth over in the nursery room titled "Loki's progress"
