I have a pet quail who's 17 months old. Two days ago aprox she started a new treatment for a skin infection she has with voriconazole and amoxicilin/clavulanate. I believe the medication is probably giving her some side effects, because right after starting she has been clumpsy and eating less...

I wasn't sure if I should post on the quail sub or on the diseases sub so I thought it was best to post in both so different communities could give their advice.

Btw thanks everyone for your comments

I don't understand very well the question, not sure if it's a language problem, but I've just listed the feed I've been giving her and all the details in the other comments

How old do your quails usually live? I've read 2-3 years so I thought the same that 15 months was middle aged or so, maybe her "40s"? Her feed has been most of her life feed A (see below). And 3 months ago or so I changed her to feed B which is for patridges, which is the closest to a good feed...

I live in Spain. Of course not!!! haha That's not the only feed I've been giving her. That was as a side treat, so she has something to do, to forage. And given in relatively small quantities, not all the time. Her feed has been most of her life feed A (see below). And 3 months ago or so I...

Hi, I have a pet japanese coturnix quail. 15 months old. She lives indoors. I only have a canary that occasionally goes outside in the balcony but he's fine. The bedding is pristine, I spot clean at least twice a day, and change it every few days. She has a nipple drinker so the water is...

Hi, I have a japanese coturnix quail. 15 months old. A couple days ago or so I was checking a small wound she had, and she fought and fell out of my hands. She took a 50cm fall or so, and I saw her landing close to her butt. I checked on her afterwards and didn't saw anything, and she kept...

Thanks for your reply! In question 3, it wasn't very clear to me if you meant it's a good practise to apply antibiotic cream alongside disinfectant while the wound is open. I think so because you said "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." but I'm not sure. In question 6, when you...

I have many questions relating to poultry vet care. I have labelled them with numbers so it's easy to answer. I know they're a lot so I don't expect everyone to answer to everything, but hopefully they'll be all covered in the comments. I appreciate you take the time to answer Here are the...

Yesterday night my quail had a small bruise in her pad. It was nothing serious. But she didn't wanna put that leg down while resting. She has a skin fungal infection and I have to apply the antifungal spray 2-3 times a day (Clotrimazol 1%). Today I just picked her up to check on the bruise and...

Lowest in the early morning 26ºC, highest during the afternoon 41ºC

I am asking for a quail but I am guessing the answers probably apply to most of poultry. My quail has a rare yeast skin infection that is sensitive to clotrimazole, ketoconazole and nystatin. My treatment of choice is going to be topical clotrimazole 1%. I've seen they sell it in two formats...

ty!

thanks!
