Today is the third day on the protocol and again no signs during the first half hour after administering the mediation, however around 11 am she once again became sleepy but not to any extreme. She would rouse for sounds and there is no slowed movements. She is now sitting on the playtop of the cage grinding her beak and relaxing. I'm also noticing a small decrease in appetite and her morning weight was down by 4 grams, to 320 grams. I will continue to closely monitor this.
The biggest and most important fact to notice though is she has not chewed the few in tact feathers on her chest since this has started! Had I not started this protocol those feathered would have been chewed by now and look like the rest of the feathers on her chest. These feathers are a huge step and something for me to mark her progress. I will also note any new feathers as they come in.
