Since my last email to you about the dropped wings, I have taken my gouldian to a vet. The vet did see a whole seed in his mouth ...What does that mean????? and she was hesitating on giving him Baytril which is what I thought he needed but she did give me the Baytril. The vet took an ultrasound and a couple of days later she sent me a 4 page booklet on liver disease. I have put two calls to her but she has not called me back. My bird is up and down but the wings are still down. I have tried to stop the Baytril because I am afraid it will hurt the liver but when I then see him starting to puff I do give it to him. Can Baytril be given to a bird with liver disease. I am giving him milk thistle for the liver and his poops have changed back to normal from yellow liquid droppings. I am very concerned that I might lose him. I do not know if I should continue with the Baytril or just treat the liver with the milk thistle. Its the weekend and I cannot reach the Vet who will not call me back anyway. Any help would be appreciated. I am more concerned with the whole seeds and I have seen him throwing up the seeds. What type of symptoms are these ????? Thank you Andrea Bonoldi, Southborough, MA
