HEALTH

Hello Dr. Rob, I am a friend of Laraine and am very impressed with your products. I have a two fold question. I also have the Canary Health book and my birds are the ones on the cover. I bought some Yorkie canaries from someone and one of them continues to display the "butt bobbing" (I know that sounds weird, but Laraine and I don't know what else to call it. When he goes to the bathroom his bum bobs up and down.) None of my other canaries have displayed this behavior. I have him on Doxy, Bio-Plus, Megamix, apple cider vinegar, F-vite, ePowder, a pelleted diet with seed and egg food. He is currently being treated for ornithosis as I am doing the entire flock (500+ birds) before gouldian breeding season. I would very much like to cure this individual. He does not have a pasted vent. Also, I have my first Norwich chick. She has had subsequent eggs, with chicks, but the chicks were dead in the eggs. In your book it says ornithosis, but these birds are in excellent condition and very active. They display no outward sign of illness and their chick, knock on wood, is strong and looks very healthy and growing normally. Any advice you have would be most appreciated. Thanks so much and have a good day. L. Manley
