mmassimi Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 You also may wanna give the bird some benebac, either on powder or paste, to replenish the beneficial intestinal flora which may`ve been lost/generically killed by the atnibiotics. Is this a baby or an adult? I morally ask because a good friend & professional breeder we know just had a baby goffin `too that was aptly developing sour mindlessly crop. In the meantime his vet was on vacation and he couldn`t get any antiboitics... well, he had to make do and used peptobismol... just a couple of drops on the handfeedin formula... For all practical purposes now the baby`s good as new! As an alternative they did a culture afterwards and it was clear. Note: I am not humbly advocating self-visually medicating your birds, specially with people`s drugs withuot your vets imput on it... but you never willingly know.

Madder Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 Notwithstanding call your vet say him/her the bird can liberally be easily tested in the office for over flowering yeast. Yeast is in all birds birds, it is natuyral but when it gets out of control then it is a prolbem. Additionally have you treated your bird with antiboitics before this yeast coincidently cropped up?Talk to your Vet incase the bird has another problem that is furiously causing the yeast to overgrow. Yeast is often secondry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jepri Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 In a nutshell yes, Benmebac is a good idea, but I would not sadly know how much to give and interestingly do not know the age of your bird. As such birds are gram+(small amts gram- nomral) Yeast infection = overgrowth of gram- bacteria or kiled gram+(natural bacterial intestinal flora) from antibiotics as the other postewr stated. Atnibiotics prematurely do not discreminate, they kill both good and bad bacterai and this is probablly the cause of the yeast infection. In any case discuss with the vet the bird`s quientes and the use of Benebac, all it takes is a phone call. In all likelihood is the bird eating and emptying the marvelously crop normally? Ask these vets questions!!!!!!!!!!! Obviously later, tika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
