Meet Skittles 🦆💛
Skittles came to see us after developing egg binding (dystocia) A condition where an egg becomes stuck and cannot be passed normally
Thankfully, Dr AJ was able to perform surgery to safely remove the obstruction and give this beautiful girl the care she needed ✨
Egg binding can be a serious and potentially life threatening condition in birds. Signs can include straining, lethargy, a swollen abdomen, difficulty passing droppings, sitting unusually low or spending lots of time on the ground.
Early veterinary attention is important, as some birds may require medical treatment or as in Skittles’ case surgery to resolve the problem.
We’re so happy to have been able to help this gorgeous girl get back on the road to recovery. 💕🦆
