| I think it was hormones. Although it could have been a combination of things. Although the fact that hes almost fully recovered now, and the summer is coming to an end makes me REALLY think it was hormones.
I gave him foods high in vitamin A. Made sure he went to bed early. Got him new toys. Gave him lots of lovin whenever I could. Soaked him regularly with avian rain. Spiked his water with apple cider.
Dunno what worked. But something did! | |

| Actually...to add to the above. I TRIED to put him to bed early. Whether he actually SLEPT or not is debatable. I'd close the blinds and cover his cage with a dark bed sheet....but if I walked past the room an hour later or so, I'd hear "....goodboy?" or the quiet clucking of a very awake fid. | |

| I'm sooooo happy!!! Beautiful Jack! Bucky is finally getting better as well... I think hormones really did have a lot to do with it for him too.
I'm SOO glad Jack is doing better! He's gorgeous!!!
