Well, here's a picture I took of Puff today, we are making progress, slowly. It feels much like two steps forward one step back. She did some chewing again and I increased her to .03 ml again and this time she seems to be handling it much better. So I hope I can keep her from any chewing again, however she's doing so much better and is handling the medication much easier now that I'm not as stressed or worried. She doesn't nap or hide out anymore during the day, she still eats formula but she does eat some foods. She's always been such a picky eater that I really don't mind giving her formula, although I'm going to look into making some mashes and feeding her that instead and see how that goes over. 
Overall I think she's doing very well, I'm just going to have to be patient on her being fully feathered.

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 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...

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.

Because the amount of liquid was getting so high I switched back to the 1/1 ratio of water/medication. So now I'm giving her 03 ml of the new mixture as of last night. She is still eating so well and showing her wonderful personality. At last check she was still messing with her feathers so it is a slow process but I will keep pushing forward.
