Hi,
Yes, my vet us an avian. I've been going to this vet for many
of years. He also treats my dogs.
I question the vet when he told me to apply this ointment to
her feet twice a day.He said it would be ok for her. and that I
must apply a very thin layer.
It's very stressful to watch her suffer like that...She's
eating and some times she has some good moments that she's not
biting them...This makes me think she's getting better...But
when I think that.She goes right back to biting them. and she
does not stay still. she lands on the bottom of her cage.
Tomorrow. ( 10-16 ) will be one week that she has been like that
Thank You Cheryl...I will be one happy person when she gets to
feeling better
