I hope you find out what the problem is and are able to get it fixed up with out too much fuss. what are pro botics liv remember i only started getting show birds this year so never had any problems before its almost a turn off almost... the vet didnt mention anything about pro botics personally i think im just a bit worryed as i never seen a bird sick in my aviry before so im treating everyone my aviry floor is not wet or damp ever and i clean it (sweep )dayly i change water dayly and fresh food is only left in for two hours then removed between 9am and 11am only one bird has been sneezing the rest are looking very well although some are going through their moulting regardless im keeping all birds till im positive they are all fine Link to comment
