I had a bird returned on Sun from a Sat race The bird seemed tired looking and I noticed a few tail feathers missing On mon he seemed to look fine eating /drinking and chasing a hen . Yesterday I noticed that he was very bloated looking. I handed him and gave him a good look to my dismay it felt like a sponge with trapped air all around his body There are no marks ie bruising on him just the missing tail feathers Has anyone any Ideas or had the same problem I against the use of antibiotics and onluse the basic worming medication I have the bird seperated from the rest of the birds I would not like too lose this bird as he has been a good servant to me the last few years
