Oh, Skysmum! A double whammy indeed. How intuitive of you to decide to take Teddy as well. You know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful budgies - I wouldn't wish tumours on my worst enemy's budgies, and the inability to be proactive is one of the hardest things to take, as you well know. Hopefully Teddy and Fern will be like Rachael's two and not be overrun by their growths. That is the best we can hope for. Big hugs and lots of empathy going your way. xxxThankyou Hezz, i guess its a price we have to pay for the pleasure of having these little guys in our lives, i remember what you went through with Blue, its a horrible business as you know only too well .
Ive been feeling a bit rubbish about it all today and trying to sort out what best to do. I took Teddy because when i was looking through the photo's i took last week i didn't like the look of the ones of his profile, his tummy just didn't look right. He is better off than Fern and is very chipper so ive kept him in the aviary for the time being and they are all on a diet.
Fern has been very quite today, im not sure how much this has to do with her being taken away from the others but i have no choice at the moment while she is on the anti b's i would love to bring Jo in with her but cant risk him picking any infections up.
The biggest problem at the moment is keeping her bottom clean which i am having to do three times a day, this although she is very good about, naturally is stressing her. She is worrying at it with her feet all the time as well and has started pecking at it today , just wish i could find something to put on her to sooth it a bit, wondered about sudocrem ?
I will see what the weekend brings but hate seeing her in obvious discomfort. She continues to eat and drink which is something.
