Posted December 22, 200717 yr This is Zeus, my YF2 Boy. He is proud father to many good looking chicks, however he is sick at the moment. he is quite sluggish, has very watery poo's, was isolating himself fromt he rest of the flock in the aviary. I went in and caught him, put him in a small carry cage with a lamp on him. I put some vitmain supplement in his water, but since i am not sure he is going to drink, i put a little under his beak with a syringe. It does not look good. It is now 6pm on a Saturday night, if he makes it through the weekend, and he has not improved, I will take him to the vet on Monday. We will have to see what happens.
December 22, 200717 yr So sorry about Zeus Dave, hope he picks up. I'll be thinking of you both. Maesie xxx
December 22, 200717 yr Author Well, it is now 8:56pm, and Zeus has gone to a better place, where he can fly free and eat Millet all day. Not sure what was wrong. i know the aviary $ not as clean as it cold be due to ll this wet weather we have had recently blowing in and wetting the straw base. tomorrow it is getting a huge clean out. funny how none of the other birds were affected. At least he leaves some progeny to carry his seed.
