My budgerigar is sick! One of its feet is lame and a little unstable. I have been sleeping these two days, short of breath and still shaking. What should I do? !

Hello, I summarized three reasons and treatment methods for your bird:

1, vitamin c deficiency

Moreover, the lack of vitamin C will lead to scurvy, fragile capillaries, easy bleeding and fragile bones. (So we should supplement trace elements to birds in time, ...)

2, arthritis type:

Some joints of sick birds (most commonly flying joints and foot joints) are swollen, hot and painful, and gradually fester. Large abscesses are formed between toes and soles of feet, and some fester.

Treatment: apply anti-inflammatory drugs and trauma drugs to the affected area and bandage it. Pay attention to the hygiene of the birdhouse to avoid infection.

Step 3 rupture

cause of a disease

The bones of caged birds are very fragile, and they are often frightened, flying around in cages and being caught by claws in cracks, causing injuries; Or due to improper capture method and excessive force, the wings, phalanges and tibia are fractured.

therapeutic method

Clean the fracture parts of caged birds with disinfectant, slowly align the fracture parts, cut them into strips of about 5 mm with anti-inflammatory and analgesic tape, and wind them once from the lower part of the fracture part, and then wind them upwards, with the proportion of overlapping each other about 2 mm until the upper part of the fracture part overlaps and winds for one week.

After winding, use two thin bamboo pieces or goose feather tubes (one feather tube is divided into two) to clamp and inject the fracture site, then fix it with adhesive tape, cover the cage, put it in an environment without external interference, and feed it with digestible high-protein feed. Generally, the fracture can heal after 10- 15 days, and the dressing can be removed in about 20 days. The main reasons are physical weakness and gastrointestinal diseases (food poisoning/gastrointestinal cold).

Treatment secret: go to the drugstore to buy levofloxacin lactate tablets.

Gently scrape the medicine surface with a spoon and take a small amount of medicine foam.

(ps: If the illness is serious, use a little more)

Evenly sprinkle the scraped medicinal foam into drinking water and food.

After that, stir well. (Note: Water must be changed every day)

Other precautions: birds should not use this method during pregnancy.

If the bird is too weak to feed itself.

Take a thin straw, suck a small amount of liquid, hold the bird's beak and blow it in.

Force it to take medicine.

Supplement vitamins a, d, c and vitamin b complex.

Strengthen calcium intake, eat more vegetables and cuttlefish bone.

You can't buy cuttlefish bones, you can give birds eggshells.

(Symptom 2) What should I do if your bird has diarrhea?

The main reason: weak constitution. Eating irritating food leads to gastrointestinal discomfort and unreasonable eating.

The indoor temperature is unbalanced, and food cannot be digested normally.
