If they start scratching at their beaks its wet canker for sure.
Guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 thats the problem with buying in, you could get more than you ask for, but sometimes worth the risk
Guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 thot it was canker! but it could be alot of things, get droppings tested to be sure
blaz Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 mine have not been vaccinated will get done tomorrow. got treated with half a majix tablet does it not cure wet canker it says it does trichomoniasis(canker) and hexamitiasis
Guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 mine have not been vaccinated will get done tomorrow. got treated with half a majix tablet does it not cure wet canker it says it does trichomoniasis(canker) and hexamitiasis Never heard of majix, whats in it? Like i say quick test for wet canker is torch!
Guest wattle Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 its not canker all the birds are seperated in four sections with corridor running along front, it must be some kind of virus thats spreading through the air.

Guest Vic Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 Wet canker? never heard of it. The birds have either paramyxo virus, or the first stages of yb sickness. Good Luck, you'll need it!
