A little more than a month ago, we notice that Merlin was chewing his feathers. After looking for information on this forum, we went to the vet. That was absolutely the best move ever: the vet found an infection in his crop. So we left the vet with meds and a follow-up appointment. The infection is gone but Merlin has not stopped chewing his feathers. So we tried continuing one of the meds that sometimes help for this kind of issue. Unfortunately, Merlin has had enough and has become very nasty every time we try to give him his meds. After a consultation with the vet, we agreed to try the collar and gradually reduced the meds.
So now we are on day 3 with the collar and he is miserable! He is installed on the bottom of his cage as recommended by the vet. He is eating but nothing else. He is used to play with his toys with his paws and his beak but now his beak cannot reach his paws.
Anyone have any suggestion or experience to share to help Merlin play and enjoy the day?
