I'm gonna buy a dropper and start that soon! :D Oh btw- yeast infections are one of my feas with Ash- being on a high sugar, sloppy, wet, fruity diet that gets to "cook" in my bedroom while I'm at school for 7 hours. What's it like with a yeast infection, can you tell me?

I adopted my eight year old conure from a mother and son that were never home. When I brought him home, I noticed his back was bald from feather picking. The previous owner had never taken Oscar to the vet. So, I took Oscar for his first vet visit. His droppings were tested and that is how I found out her had a yeast infection. Other than the picking, there were no other signs. Thanks for your help concerning the dropper. I will try it today.
