not meant to be
Just as my female turq is laying its first egg, she got sick again, and I am having to pull her to treat her for infection again. Hopefully she will recover, but I am definitely not going to allow her to breed again this year. I am trying to incubate the one egg she laid. It's very difficult to maintain constant temperature and humidity without an incubator. I bought one, but it will not get to me in time, so I am trying to make a home-made incubator until I receive the professional one in the mail.
Bad look...I think a lot of my splendid's problems have been due to fungal type infections.
ReplyDeleteShe's been recovering somewhat after 1 week of antibiotics from the avian vet with 1 more week to go. She was congested and had a lot of mucous - just like a chest cold. I even had to wipe her "nose" everyday to help clear the dried mucous. I certainly hope it's not fungal, but if she doesn't recover fully, I may try to treat her for that.
