glad she is getting better keep us updated

Timi is better and better every day. Today she's getting her last antibiotics I'm very happy for her (it had to be big pain to have all the send in her belly)

awesome news

I'm so glad your baby is feeling much better. It can be such a worry when they are sick. All the best Karen

Glad everything worked out and once, again, we learned something. I do provide a little grit/sand occasionally but not every day to the ones who have have the tendency to abuse it.

I don't think I'm going to give them the sand bowl anymore. I'll do it once a month maybe just for a while.

Today I've put my little girl back with the flock . She looks perfectly fine, just got slim a bit.

good to hear

You must be ever so much happier!

I never give my birds grit or sand. I now of top breeders that also have stopped giving grit and sand.

 

There is one breeder in England that over the last twenty years has never given grit or sand and has never had and problems due to it.

Thanks daz, I won't give it to them anymore.

 

It's just confusing - most of the budgie books say that sand or grit is very important for them and must always be in their cage

:fear I know, it is very confusing. A girl I used to work with told me her budgie died as she didn't know any better and didn't provide it with grit/sand. Now, who told her this, I do not know. I still provide it in limited quantities but some people swear by it and others don't, isn't life grand. :book:
