Guest Navek Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Picked some. New birds up the other day. All the birds were fine healthy flying around chirping and singing but I've noticed one just sits on the floor all puffed up not moving just sitting there. What could cause this..it has no disgorge frame eyes or nostrils but it's poo was very watery .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 11,000 Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 It is ill mate and needs bring into the warm and some anti biotics getting into it (maybe baycox,but someone more in the know might help out with what one's best),but if the truth be known most birds die when they get like this.. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 11,000 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Shame that mate but when their really fluffed it's hard to get them back right again, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Navek Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Me and my girl bury it in back yard (her idea) All tho it's a shame the bird has passed I've been able use it as lesson for the young un as she will always have to be prepared that when having live stock there's always going to be dead stock sooner or later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slip lead 862 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Keep your eye on the other birds for bobbing tail,coughing or constantly eating and I would disinfect cage as a precaution. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

delboy_187 904 Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 When I buy new I allways segregate each bird treating them before introduce them to there intended mate or flight 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slip lead 862 Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Prevention better than cure... Quite a lot of Canary breeders, treat there birds with antibiotics every Jan/Feb, so no nasties are past on to youngsters. Sick birds can recover from illness after treatment, but it always seems to come back and get them in the end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
