I have just been given a senior male canary and he has a
respiratory problem. He wheezes, breaths very fast, panting and
sometimes gaping. The degree of these symptons varies over the
day. When he sleeps, he appears normal except the breathing is
fast. He eats and drinks normally and has no nasel discharge
or diahhrea.
I previously had three canaries and he came with two others - one
of which looks like she may be coming down with the same problem.
She is a year old and her breathing just seems to be a little
fast (panting) with not the severe symptoms of the male.
I have tried Ornacyn-Plus from the local pet store. One week of
treatment with no improvement. Does anyone have any suggestions?
