Initially I had her on Triple C until my vet was able to get me some Psittavet (4% Doxy) I have the 12% still coming to keep on hand now that I have a number of Blues. I also got some of the Chlorsig eye cream from my chemist and applied a few times a day very carefully!

There were a couple of days where I have to crop tube feed her emergency formula as she wouldn't eat.

I don't know if I have gotten lucky or not!

I always try and do everything possible to save any of my birds from a zebra to a blue gouldian.

Sounds like it was very touch and go. It will be interesting to see if she recovers enough to breed for you.

Good luck.

Congratulations on pulling her through. Hope that next year she is your top breeder as a reward.
