:D And, without a doubt, you are a whole lot better taking your prescribed meds than the birds! :(:

I'm a bit worried about these pills, Phoebe. They are in a clear capsule and the inside ingredients very closely resemble MILLET :P tiny weenie seedlike balls of yellow......very weird :)

:) Just consider them VITAMINS!!! :D

Oh dear, millet flavoured medicine :) :ausb: :P I'm glad it has been diagnosed, better to know what you are dealing with than to have it a mystery. Tell me Karen, are you finding an overwhelming urge to flap your arms and lay eggs? :P:P:P Do you sleep with your nose on your back??? :P:P:P

I sleep with my nose on Ken's back, Lin ....does that count ? :ausb: and I have been too sick to preen my feathers........... :P

Ken told everyone at work I had "bird flu" :)

OMG Karen...getting everyone up in arms.

Looks like you are feeling better :ausb:, ps check for feathers in unusual places :):

Getting back to Ken's birds. We haven't lost any since the medication started so we have all fingers crossed. We have to catch the birds in Ken's aviary and put them in a smaller enclosure for the medication to work best. So, we bought another metal aviary last night about 6 ft wide by 4 ft by about 6-7 ft tall. It has a divider in the middle and doors each end. Paid $100 for it secondhand which is pretty good. Saturday we have to catch all scarlets, bourkes, finches, quails, and canaries and put them in the newly acquired and cleaned metal aviary for ongoing treatment (treatment meant to take six weeks). That gives us a month or two to clean and disinfect Ken's aviary before we change it around for the budgies. Thats the plan so far.

good luck Karen, too bad I don't live closer to help you out

Thanks Lovey. There is a danger to living closer to me though. You would end up with more budgies :D

I hope you and your precious birds feel better soon..
