Hi all,

I have a silver laced wyn that has been ill off and on for about a month. She’s not laying eggs, she’s lethargic, she’s only drinking at this point. At first we thought she had a crop issue because her neck/chest looked enlarged. Took her to the vet and they did xray.. crop was empty. She’s had clear vomit/ saliva at times and anytime she drinks or eats she’s constantly adjusting her neck. The vet was concerned about her neck in the xray. But didn’t know what to make of it .. I’ve tried amtyl for a while, all the water supplements, and just dewormed her ( never dewormed before) she’s barely eating or drinking now :/ my daughter is distraught and I’ve tried everything .. if anyone can help I’d appreciate it. I’ve attached pics of her neck, poop and xray she is much more pale now and not eating at all, I just recently saw not to mix antibiotics with electrolytes I was doing that .. should I try it again without mixing? I just dewormed her bc I read about capilla worms in esophagus .. :/ I don’t want to over do it as she looks very weak at this point

Whoops that’s not her poop, although it looks similar
