Hello !
I'm from Turkey , my name is Tulû.
I'm so desperate .
My son his name Can Can who is 4 years old has some problems .
5 months ago I noticed that his all cere got brown color with some recess.
In Turkey it is so difficult to find an Avian Veterinarian ; they don't know anything about my son's problem.
I searched the internet and I saw that there were two possibilities :
One of them is an testicle tumor and the other is a fungi over cere .
I never thought about a tumor and chose the second.
It is said that applying a vaseline may help , so I applied a vaseline and I saw his cere was turning its original blue color.
The crust over his blue cere was dissappearing slowly.
Then I looked for an anti-fungal ointment and found Avipom .
After avipom it got better , the blue parts under the crust became more visible .
In prospectus of Avipom it is said that "use 2 or 3 weeks max."
I used 3 weekes as said.
After the treatment I saw that brown crust is beging again there on his cere.
Today I started to apply vaseline again .
But i think he has some skin problems .
Besides , he is itching too much.
The veterinarian told me to use avimec(ivermectin) for 3 weeks (once a week , one drop) , I applied avimec 3 weeks.
After treatment (aprox. after 10 days) my son started to scream suddenly and started to itching.
He screams like I pull his tail.
I used a spray name Avispray (but I don't trus it)
I see many powders for mites like :Jakotin, opigal 5 ,rin powder, Ektogal, lizol, carbonil, kreolin. But I don't know is it safe ?
The photos below ; first one is the begining stage of this problem and second is the final stage
Third photo is freshly taken;
On first picture you can see the blue part of his right nostril(the top) that I had applied vaseline
On the second picture(taken after bath on August) it can be cleary seen the blue original cere.
Please help us , I'm so sorry that there is nobody can help my son here in Turkey.
