Help Needed Urgently

Hi there, we have got up this morning to find pipsqueak with swelling just under her eyes, watery eyes and she doesnt seem able to close her beak.
Can someone help please

Hi when did you last worm them? Did you use flubenvet or another wormer? It could be gape worm. Or is her chest rattly? if so it could be mycoplasma or another respiratory infection in which case she needs antibiotics quickly. There is also a chance it could be aspergillosis. I would get her to a vets today.
Staffies are softer than you think.

HI Joy, they were supposed to have been wormed when I got them about 3 months ago but I have put flubenvet in food this morning and some water with ACV in. concerned at whether she is managing to pick any pellets up. She doesnt seem rattly.

All your birds should be wormed together and not just this one.

So sorry to hear about Pipsqueak  :(   I would agree with Joyfull.  Good luck Zoggett,  and keep us posted.
