My poor Emu.. She is not feeling well... This started a week ago...

Runny mostly white with a green tinge poop. Her comb is laying flatter than normal on her head but is her normal color maybe even redder. Crop is semi full but very soft. Stomach under belly is also very soft almost watery feeling. Eyes are clear but she does relax and closes them more often than normal when in my lap. Pretty slow moving in the yard does a lot of standing around. Can not jump up very well either. Low apatite but, she is eating a little and drinking. Her breathing seems to be a little bit labored too.

Have given her yogurt, apple cider vinegar, and electrolytes plus some herbal antiviral, anti-fungal and antimicrobial tincture. Also some colloidal silver added to her water.

She doesn't seem to be getting notably better or worse.

This is her normal look... You can see her comb normally stands up a little more. My little lap buddy...

How old is she and when did she last lay?

When did you last deworm her?

You can give her a bath in warm epsom salt water to clean her backside. Dry her well with clean towels and blow dryer on low setting until fully dry.

Does her abdomen feel bloated between her legs?

I would stop the colloidal silver as it can interfere with the uptake of other medications given
