Hi Everyone,
I got 2 pigeons (both female) from someone, who also got them from someone the same day. So, I don't know where they actually came from.
Both looked fine at start and were eating very well but after 2 days one of them got sick.
1. She started to eat very little and started to sit very tensed.
2. She has watery poop.
2. 2 days ago, there was only water in her poop missing the solid part; it is possible because that day she was in a place where it was a little hard for her to reach the seeds and grains, so I think she didn't bother to eat them. So, you can her poop that time.
3. Next day, I kept grains and seeds very closed to her. She probably ate them because today she had solid part in her poop as well but there was a lot of water.
So, I started to try and find out the possible disease. Usually, when I couldn't find one, I start treatment of canker and it actually works 90% of the times and I did same here.
It has been 4 days and I am given her about 30-40mg Metronidazole once a day. The first day, I gave her Metronidazole, she vomited after 20-30 minutes of getting Metronidazole. But she didn't vomit again. Usually, I see improvement the very next day if it is canker but it is not, because she is not improving after 4 days of treatment of canker.
Now following symptoms I can see:
1. She eats very little and losing weight.
2. Watery poop with solid green.
3. There were always tiny bubbles in her poop since the first day. You can see in above images.
4. Her keel bone is fine at the moment, but I think it will become sharp if she will not start to eat properly.
5. She sits stressed and is not active like a normal pigeon.
Now I think it is diarrhea because of bubbles in her poop with my limited knowledge. What are you thoughts and how can I treat it? I have Metronidazole, doxy, amoxilline and some other worms medicine available right away. I can get other medicines if needed.
The bad part is that the second female that came with her has now also started to show similar symptoms and she is also eating very little. Since both came from same place. You can see her poop below and she also has bubbles in it.
My own flock is totally fine, and dancing and enjoying and loving life. So, whatever it was they brought it with them. They are separate from my flock.
There is no lab here, so whatever it is I have to treat it myself.
Thanks in advance.
