Well, this morning her weight was back down again 😞 293 grams.
Last night however, she showed more interest in food since this all began. I was making foraging balls for the gang with unshelled almonds on the inside and she decided they looked so good she tipped the container and dove in head first! I was so excited to see this much interest and I'm truly hoping we have turned a corner, the next few days will tell the truth. I even made her a treat basket and put it in her cage last night and sure enough she dug in this morning. We did formula for breakfast and she ate more then normal, a good 15 ml or so and will be doing eggs for lunch, which is her favorite. Then I'll do another feeding later and leave her with lots of goodies while I'm working, I'll be coming home on my break to medicate and do the formula.

It has been a while since my last post and even longer since this all started and I only have positivity to share. Puff is getting .02 ml of meds every morning, and only in the morning. So she gets one dose only, every morning with her breakfast, no evening dose and she is doing so amazing. The reason I chose to try cutting out the evening dose was because she was falling from her sleeping perch during the night, and most nights. Because I'm a very light sleeper I would hear her flap and get up to find her on the bottom of her cage looking stunned and a bit dazed. After moving her into my room to sleep so I could better observe, the conclusion I came to was the med was puting her into a very deep sleep and she lost balance control and/or fell as she was relaxing so much into a deep sleep. After stopping the evening dose I was no longer having this issue and she continued to leave all of her feathers in tact. One other thing I decided to do is every other Sunday she gets a med fre...
So I've been giving Puff the 1/1 mixture at 05 ml for a week now. She has some new feathers, so all I can do is watch and see. Her personality is in full bloom, she's still the picky eater I know her to be. With me giving her hand feeding formula twice a day, fresh foods and her daily nuts and pellets her weight is staying steady at about 315 grams.
Second dose at 8:30 a.m. and again no symptoms or side affects. We are starting out with a .03 ml solution and will increase by .01 ml every two days until I get to the right dose for her.
