I have a canary, Elvis, it's a girl, thought it was a boy at first, my cat had brought it in in it's mouth and we just kept it. I've had Elvis for about 3 or 4 years and she's my baby. I've just noticed a few days ago that she has a rather large lump that looks to be filled with a liquid of some sort and i'm at a complete loss at what to do. Upon closer inspection i've noticed the liquid or whatever this is is also on her underside. She always has clean fresh water, fresh fruits and a clean cage. I live by myself and sadly unable to afford a trip to the vet. I've been searching the internet for awhile now, I was told that it could be a blockage of some sort cause she isn't getting enough vitamin A, so i've been using egg food on top of her normal food.

If anybody can help at all it would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

Thanks! ]]> Bird Health and Nutrition Bluesummers http://www.petforums.co.uk/bird-health-nutrition/71382-help-canary.html http://www.petforums.co.uk/bird-health-nutrition/70307-feather-cysts-canaries.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:19:28 GMT Hi can anyone advise my canary keeps getting feather cysts they start as lumps get quite big and then fall off.he bred last year I put the babies in...
