Re: Finch losing feathers around eye and crack in beak
My girl's eye is actually 90% better to my surprise this morning. I've really been working on getting her to optimal health with vitamins, constantly offering a new food so she eats a lot, calcium, etc.. I caught her and put drops in her eyes 3 times yesterday, which she surprisingly waits in anticipation and lets me do. Such a sweet girl! I can't believe the difference this has made. If she didn't get this eye infection, I now realize she would have died from malnutrition and wasn't just "old" but starving because of her very "not nice" mate! Thanks for all your help because I would have lost her!

Re: Finch losing feathers around eye and crack in beak
After the stretch of Colloidal Silver my z. finches eye just did not look 100%. Maybe 80% at the end of it all. It was cleared up...not losing feathers, but still a little "weepy" I decided to put her on Amoxitex. She now looks like a new bird! She doesn't like me at all after chasing her around to catch her all those times but at least she's healthy. Thanks again for all your help.
