skylah, Joey and Banana UPDATE

I realised I never updated about them. They spent about a month with me, they got treated every day with baby oil once the scaly face started to clear up a bit because the actual scaly face treatment was very harsh, the were also treated with ivomec twice (spot on treatment for mites).
They then went to live at my friends Mum. She has a huge aviary, and also two big bird cages. (all filled with budgies).
Skylah, joey and Banana got kept there still in quarantine for a few weeks. They got treated twice more with ivomec just to be safe, and the mites cleared up.

Joey's beak had really started to get better whilst staying with me, I gave him a toy used to help keep the beak trimmed and he was happy to chew on it. And soon enough the long part on his beak wore down.

I've heard from there new owner skylahs beak has also improved and she is starting to grow back feathers around her eye.
They have all been moved into the new aviary and are getting along great with the other birds. AND they are eating fruit and veg!
They have come such a long way after being 3 very sick budgies with severe mites and vitamin deficiencies to healthy and happy budgies :)

pics will be up latter!
