My vet told me that they can but usually only for a last resort because it's so difficult to get the dosage correct. And it tends to make them very drowsy to the point of being lethargic. :( |

this is a picture of Coco, the one that had the fit, she's in the background, she's a dilute, she's doing so much better; removed her 5 babies all weaned; Seen her mating again, removed two eggs, transferred her and her partner in a larger cage, she needs to exercise and stretch her wings, hopefully she will make a full recovery.

This is Coco today, 5 months after her fit. She's doing much better but if she falls off the perch, she rolls over and panic on the floor and hurries to climb up the cage to go back on the perch but other then that she's doing well, she's active and loves her food. Stef Posted Image Posted Image |
