Posting again about my bird Bella,
I've explained it in another thread, but it appears new problems have arisen. I've been giving my bird Bella medicine for her crop (for an infection called canker specifically). Yesterday, during her second dosage, she started making a wheezing/clicking noise, though she recovered after only a couple of minutes so my family decided she was fine.
This morning I thought I saw her coughing, though I was half asleep so I can't say for sure. Today she has been far more playful, but after giving her a bath I noticed that she was fanning her wings very slightly every three seconds or so and her tail was sticking down flat. Before getting up to play again she did a very watery poo.
Could this be a sign of a respiratory problem, or is this normal behaviour for birds who are drying after a bath? I've never seen her do it before but I'm hoping it's because she was drying in a different place than usual. Where the poo is concerned, could it be watery because of the medicine? Feeling very anxious so any answers are appreciated :frown:
