I have a question.. how much food should be in his crop for him to safely have the 2.8 ml dose? Right now he is able to fill his crop until it has a small ball shape. Earlier he could eat twice that much easily, but right now his appetite has reduced and he also takes longer to eat. I dont mind spending time to make him eat more if needed.Wanted to add, that is a fairly large volume to dose, so draw up your dose, and give it no more than .5 ml at a time and let him swallow in between, until the entire dose is given. To minimize the chance he aspirates any. And don't squirt it forcefully into his beak.
