hi all and we thank you for responding. it turns out that after 11 days in icu and a million tests that he has liver disease. ouch. he's currently home and still receiving meds but is still very weak. the symptoms are weakness, not eating or drinking, unable to stand or perch, sleepy, yellow poop and diareah. if anyone needs advice i can be some help now!! thank god he's responding to meds and is on his way to a full recovery.

So the liver disease is reversible? What caused it in the first place?

 

Continued wishes for a full recovery!

Bentonite will aid in digestion and make things easier on his intestines. It's a clay powder. See your health food store or look up Bentonite use in parrots ...online.

Einiesmom I'm so happy to see that the problem has been found so he can be cured. Also that he's responding to the meds. Hopefully he'll get completely over it
