Quarantine - electrolytes
Posted: Sat Jul 06, 2013 12:30 am
Hi!
I have two new gouldians, and I need to start the quarantine, especially since one of them is fluffed.
I read Laraine´s advice here: http://www.ladygouldian.com/content/why ... -new-birds , but first of all she recommends NV powder or quick gel, and I don´t have any of those. She says: "If you do not have access to any of these products, then you could use either Pedialyte or Gatorade, mixed 50/50 with water. I prefer the products made specifically for birds as most of them also contain needed vitamins and minerals to boost the immune system."
So I thought that I can use this option (Gatorade or Pedialyte mixed with water 50/50) and add Dufoplus, so the birds will have the benefit of the vitamins, too.
I just want to know if it´s ok to mix them.
