Zigi -

Is there undigested seed in their droppings? I've read that giardia is common with fledglings, and should be treated with Ronivet/Ronex. Hope somebody else chimes in with more info for you, and hope the little guys get better soon.

i have some ronex - got it from a good frend
i will try that.

i think they have a bad time digesting the food, and now
if the ronax wont help they wont survive for anther antibiotic test.
their droppings are realy look like their food they eating

thank you again.
