Guest arsenal Posted June 25, 2012 Report Posted June 25, 2012 One of my young birds puffed up neck looks like a pouter but is a jannsen a fellow member of our club pierced it and it went down,but now it keeps coming up again daily i keep piercing it to let the air out but next day it is up again,anyone one enlighten me on what to do
Guest IB Posted June 25, 2012 Report Posted June 25, 2012 Sounds like a ruptured air sack, with air released inside body and trapped under the skin. To release that air, use a hollow needle (like the one used for pmv vaccination) to puncture the skin at the highest part of the swelling, and let that air filter out through the needle. If it is just reflating IMO best left alone. Vet on video says it will come OK by itself in a couple of weeks time.
