Karsil for budgies and instructions for use. What if a budgie has diarrhea? Factors of domestic poisoning of parrots
Watching a beloved parrot, we get used to its restlessness, eternal jumping, impudent curiosity and loud twittering. When a bird behaves unusually (having lousy sleeps at an unusual time for it, makes strange sounds or picks itself at the bottom of the cage) - you should not always worry.
If something happened to him before the pet’s abnormal behavior (a blow, a fright, gnawing wallpapers or candy wrappers from sweets, got drunk from your cup, got confused somewhere, etc.) or just such behavior is very uncharacteristic for him - you need to take Urgent measures. First of all, you should call an ornithologist, describe the condition of the bird and, on the recommendation of a doctor, provide first aid to the parrot, then go to the reception with the bird or wait for the ornithologist to arrive at your home.
Also, more exotic bird species have rare diseases, the approach to which and treatment methods can radically differ from the usual ones. Therefore, medications in the treatment of unusual diseases of parrots should be bought after the doctor has made the correct diagnosis and prescribed a specific treatment.
Lynda hiddenSince we are talking about first aid to a parrot, this group of drugs is quite enough at the first sign of a bird's malaise. The main thing is to be guided by the advice of an ornithologist.
In order not to panic at pharmacies and veterinary pharmacies, you should have a certain group of medicines in the house for first aid to your parrot.
So, the owner’s first-aid kit should have the following components:
from a veterinary pharmacy with diagnoses:
Scabies mite (Aversectin / Nvertin ointment);
Probiotic (Vetom 1.1);
Immunomodulator (Maxidine);
Mechanical trauma (trauma gel);
Antibacterial drug (Ciprovet);
Restorative / Antioxidant (Emicidin).
In a regular pharmacy You can get:
Sorbent (Activated Carbon, Polyphepan, Smecta, Enterodesum, Filtrum);
Wound healing (Actovegin gel, Eplan - solution);
With gout (Allopurinol);
Antiseptic drug (Betadine, Miramistin);
Tick, constipation (Vaseline oil);
With a deficiency of calcium (calcium gluconate);
Hemostatic (3% hydrogen peroxide, Dicinon - ampoules, Ethamsylate - solution);
Liver repair (Carsil);
For kidney problems (Lingonberry leaves);
With convulsions / vitamin B (Milgamma);

Diarrhea (chamomile pharmacy);
Trauma (Traumeel);
Antibacterial agent (furatsilin);
Poisoning / sorbent (Enterosgel / Atoxil).
In addition to the list of drugs, the first-aid kit should contain cotton pads and syringes. A syringe for insulin helps a lot in determining the dosage of drugs in the treatment of small species of parrots.
Iodine, alcohol and brilliant green in the treatment of a parrot is prohibited to use!
It will not be superfluous, the presence in the interior of the owner, a table lamp and an incandescent bulb of 60 watts. In some diseases, the bird should be warmed by first curtaining part of the cage with shade cloth.

In my opinion, the presence of hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate (to stop bleeding from the claws) will not hurt. Potassium permanganate (powder) will quickly stop bleeding. But you can use it only on the claws!

Peroxide is on the list, but potassium permanganate, in inexperienced hands, can do more harm than help.

Diarrhea in budgerigars occurs not only due to poisoning, but may also indicate the development of infectious, invasive diseases. According to the shape, color, consistency of bowel movements, you can establish the root cause of diarrhea in the wavy. If the parrot has diarrhea, do not leave the problem unattended. Prolonged diarrhea leads to intoxication, dehydration, exhaustion, and if you do not start treatment, do not help the pet, a fatal outcome is possible. Consider the main causes of intestinal upset, as well as what to do and how to treat diarrhea in wavy men.
Causes of diarrhea in the wavy
Recognizing diarrhea in a bird is fairly simple in the nature of the bowel movement. Feces acquire a watery liquid consistency. In the litter with diarrhea there may be foam, a large amount of mucus, particles of undigested food, bloody substances (clots, threads, blotches). Feces can have a sharp unpleasant odor, green, dark brown, white or yellow.
The main causes of diarrhea in worms, Corella parrots:
Frequent stresses, nervous strain, poor-quality moldy feed, violation of the feeding regimen, a sharp change in the type of food, contaminated drinking water, lack of vitamin A, calcium in the body very often provoke diarrhea in feathered pets.
The parrot vilifies in chronic pathologies of the liver and kidneys. Note that in budgies, the cockatiel has a very delicate gastrointestinal tract, and poor-quality feeds most often lead to the development of various systemic pathologies and disrupt digestion.
Poisoning, which is always accompanied by vomiting, severe diarrhea, can be caused by chemicals, toxins, moldy grains, rotten fruits, vegetables, and even some domestic plants.
It is worth noting that indigestion of the stomach can be triggered by prolonged use of certain medications. So, after antibiotic therapy, beneficial intestinal microflora dies, which takes part in the digestive processes.
Symptoms of Diarrhea
If the parrot has diarrhea, in addition to the liquid watery stool, the behavior of the feathered pet changes, the general condition worsens. The intensity, nature of the clinical manifestations of diarrhea largely depends on the underlying cause, which provoked an upset stomach.
Important! The nature, consistency, frequency of bowel movements, their color may indicate a possible cause of diarrhea in birds. Liquid feces is a sign of not only diarrhea, but also polyuria.
Clinical signs of diarrhea in worms, Corella parrots:
- lethargy, apathy, depression;
- yellow, yellow-green, white, lemon droppings;
- decreased appetite, refusal of food;
- contaminated feathers near the cloaca;
- vomiting, regurgitation of food after eating;
- sudden weight loss, exhaustion;
- enlarged goiter (with inflammation);
- increased thirst.
With diarrhea, the parrot looks untidy. The bird sits on the perch or at the bottom of the cage, having cracked, does not show interest in the outside world, does not respond to external stimuli. On closer examination, prolonged diarrhea causes cloaca to become inflamed, and in the female, the oviduct.
Black droppings indicate internal bleeding. White, dark brown, yellow diarrhea in a parrot is noted for viral and bacterial diseases, infections. If the stool contains a lot of foam, mucus, undigested food, perhaps the pet is infected with worms.
Gray, with a bluish tinge, white liquid feces is a sign of pancreatic disease. Liquid green, light brown droppings are noted in case of poisoning, deficiency of useful trace elements. Diarrhea in Corella, green wavy also occurs with dysbiosis, after a course of antibiotic therapy. Bright lemon, light yellow color of the litter indicates pathology, liver disease.
Possible complications
Prolonged diarrhea prevents the absorption of beneficial nutrients that come with feed. Diarrhea leads to dehydration, intoxication, severe weakness, and causes exhaustion.
Important! If the budgerigar has diarrhea and does not start treatment in time, indigestion can cause the death of a feathered friend. Diarrhea, which lasts more than 24–38 hours, is a great threat to both the health and life of a feathered pet. What can be done if the bird has an upset stomach, an ornithologist will tell you.
If the parrot often goes to the toilet with liquid droppings, diarrhea depletes the bird's body, provokes functional and systemic malfunctions in the work of internal organs and systems. In addition, prolonged diarrhea contributes to the stretching of the muscles of the sphincter of the cloaca, which may eventually fall out.
Any uncharacteristic symptoms, changes in behavior should alert owners, breeders of budgies. If you care about the life and health of a feathered friend, do not self-medicate. Consult a veterinarian. Uncontrolled medication can cause serious complications and consequences.
How to treat diarrhea?
If the budgerigar has diarrhea, treatment should be prescribed by an ornithologist, on the basis of the main reason that provoked an upset stomach, loose stools in a feathered pet.
First of all, carry out cleaning in the cage, clean the feathers from dirt near the cloaca. With a group of birds, plant a parrot with an upset stomach from other feathered pets. It is possible that the wavy is infected.
Before you begin to treat diarrhea in a parrot, provide the sick pet with optimal conditions for keeping warm. Near the cage, the air temperature should be 23–25 degrees, but if bloody spots are noticeable in the litter, it is strictly forbidden to warm the parrot! Protect the bird from drafts, stress. Sharp loud noises, noise can provoke a nervous shock in a weakened bird.
If the budgerigar has diarrhea, exclude fresh herbs, fruits, vegetables from the diet. Clean feeders, drinking bowls. Give the bird only high-quality millet, grain.
If diarrhea is provoked by poisoning, but the budgerigar continues to eat, adjust the diet, exclude foods that could cause an upset stomach in the bird. Crush half a tablet of Karsil into powder and sprinkle them with food.
In case of poisoning, adsorbents (activated carbon, Smecta, Enterosgel, Polypefan, Enterodes) will help normalize the state of a feathered pet. Give your pet a warm broth of chamomile. You can also give a decoction of rice to a parrot, flax seed. To restore intestinal microflora, if the bird often walks with liquid droppings, probiotics and enzyme preparations (Linex) are used.
Complex vitamin-mineral formulations (Gamavit), special medical fodder mixtures, which can be purchased at pet stores, veterinary pharmacies, and clinics, will help improve the general condition.
If the parrot has diarrhea, veterinarians often prescribe Vetom 1.1, the Gamavit immunomodulator at the rate of 0.5 ml per 50 ml of water. The duration of the treatment course is 5-7 days. Vetom is added daily to drinking water, 1 drop twice a day for 7 days. This tool has a pronounced bacterial effect, normalizes digestion, and gives a general strengthening effect.
If diarrhea is triggered by viral, bacterial diseases, infections, the veterinarian will prescribe complex antibacterial, anti-inflammatory drugs, symptomatic medications that will help cure the pet.
Before giving the cure, read the instructions carefully. Follow the recommendations of the attending veterinarian. During treatment, try not to leave the parrot for a long time alone. The bird should feel caring, your love. Watch the bird closely, its behavior. If the condition worsens, if the therapy did not give proper results, urgently contact a veterinarian.
