Unfortunately there is nothing I can do or tell you what to use, it's best to take your canary to an avian vet even if it takes hours to get there.
I’m so glad she’s feeling better now! Good call on taking her to the avian vet!
Love this video, thank you! Song is a beautiful bird and you obviously take such good care of your feathery friends!
thank you for your informative video, so glad the little sweetheart is doing well.
I have several avairan vet in my city.
I'm so glad Song is doing better now 😊☺
you are to kind and generous lady
Technology is amazg nowadays. The tiny camera attached to the computer and flashlight enabled us to see the trachea. Glad Song is on the road to recovery.
Wow! I've never heard that! Very interesting! Hope your canary healed up fast! Have a great day!
Ruth King She is much better, thank you for watching.
So glad I watched. Thx
Thank you so much. My grandmother has a canary with a lot of these symptoms, and is convinced that he's fine because she's never owned a canary before and hasn't done research. I was worried about him because it didn't seem normal to me but I've never had a canary either
Again, thank you
You really have maybe answered my problem, I lost three bird in a few weeks. And maybe it was the mites. So going to spray mine tomorrow . Don’t want my birds to die , as I never heard of this kind of mites. Also going to ask my vet about this if he has a treatment to give me. Tks for this good informative video.....🌹❤️🌹❤️
Thank you for the help
Thank you.
very useful video thank you very much...
Thanks for this video... Very interesting :)
Great video

I adore my canary, Kai, I'm forever afraid something will happen to him. 😭
I know it’s like so late but how is your canarie
Thanks for video
Love the name Song.
good to know
thanks too much
Your canary are very adorable(♥_♥?
He was so mad or annoyed after examination. Lol
Yes I have Orange Cheek finch also canaries are rich too
Nice video thank you. Do you happen to know how many mg per ml where in the baytril medication your vet prescribed for your canary?
Thanks.
Thanks .. very helpful .. I have six canaries and 2 cockatiels .. most of them are still babies .. about a year old, but one of my canaries started to look sick and and the other canaries were plucking out the feathers, so I had to isolate her and she is improving ,, I looked at PetSmart for antibiotic drops but they didn't have any .. I might have better luck on Amazon.
Hope your canary will be alright. Bring her to an avian vet if she gets worse.
Love Canaries. I have a Red Factor (Phoenix) and an American Singer (Owen). I see an avian vet.
Ivermectin how much drops should I give to my budgie? And for how many days? Shall I apply on its body or it should drink? Please lemme know
Why my canary doesn't drink that much?? Love your video by the way. Thank you.
For how long your adding medication to the water ? Thank you 😊
my canary has a clicking sound with his beak is this the same thing as air sac mites thanks for sharing your beautiful videos.
Hi, its possible it's air sack mites or a respiratory issue. Please take him to your Avian vet for treatment
Please
How many times for treatment
Thanks.
Are they contagious?
My canaries would have bathed in the medication. lol I used to give it straight from syringe as mine would drink it no issue. My canaries were weird they used to love weird things. lol
Yes have lots Canary and thanks l learned from you
Thankyou for posting. My canary is showing these signs
:(
Awh, sorry to hear this. Glad my video helped.
@@Loveofpets how much does it cost to get your bird checked for air sac mites?
Hi, @Sharon N prices vary depending on where you live. I am in Ontario Canada and the exam cost $100.00. Any medication or tests are extra.
When my canaries or budgies are symptomatic, I don't like to stress them by examining the trachea..we just assume it's mites and go right to treating with ivermectin. (This, by the way can also be administered on the inside of the thigh.)
Quick question. I've just bought a canary, only been two days. It does not fly around much and keeps making a "tutting" sound. Also sometimes becomes "puffed up". I initially thought it was just because of it's new home but now I am worried that she may be sick.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I'm going through this now with my cockatiel and there's no vets around and I don't know what to do😞
what's the medication given by your avian vet?
Is there a way to do it by yourself because all the vets closest people have experience awful things and I don’t trust veta around me because of their reputation
CAN YOU PLEASE HELP my canary is weak and is making soft sounds and moving his head up and down and side to side like if he was choking and he’s not using his legs it’s been going on for about 2 hours, WHAT SHOULD I DO i can’t go to the vet i have no car and the vet is an hour walk
Hi my canary is like that , can you tell me the names of the medication and where do I find it please
Sorry one more question... Where exactly can I by this baytril your talking about? It's really hard to find. Maybe it's because I'm in Canada... please help and many thanks. Keep up the great work.
Hi, I got the baytril from my Avian Vet.
Can you give me the name of the meds and were can i get the medication from without going to the vet
Hi! I was wondering if you could relate to the situation I am in with my little canary. She has her eye lid swollen and though I have given her so many different kinds of treatment through the vet it just does not go down.
Would you have any suggestions or advice
Sorry to hear about your canary.
Is your vet a certified avian vet?
What does your vet say about the eye? I would seek out a new avian vet if treatment is not working or ask for more tests such as an x-ray if the vet thinks your bird can handle an x-ray.
I never experienced a swollen eye lid with my birds before so not sure what it is. I hope your canary will get better.
How many times for treatment
Within a year of birth most bred budgies smily face mites eggs Hatch from the breeders haunt... Incubation period of scaly face mites is about 6-12 mos
hello . thanks for your nice video . i have one canary , she is eating well and jump everywhere very well but sometime she shows me something is in her mouth such as human being when we eat a hair in our food and try to take out of our mouth . I took her and check her inside her bike but I didn't find any . Could you guide me in this issue , could it be a sign of air sac mite.
Hi, canaries normally stick out their tongue and move it back and forth and in a circle to clean inside their beak which is normal.
Is your canary using her foot to get something out of the beak?
Since you did not see anything then perhaps it's normal but keep an eye on her.
Please my canary is having diarrhea for some time and lost his voice for a time I can8take him to vet due to civid 29 and I am under quarantine is there anything I can do I am so sad and need to help him
What is the medicine name
Hello, i really liked your video. I do have a canary. I bought her like 2 days ago and something weird happened. I don’t know if you could help me with that. So the first problem i noticed is, when i was cleaning her cage she started flying around for 20 seconds and she started breathing with her mouth wide open for a second. Then while holding her in my hands she made a click noise it was so weird. Did any of your canaries ever do that? should i get her checked? Btw could you describe what a normal canary poop looks like? Hope you can answer my questions.
Hi, canaries are prone to respiratory problems. They also stress easy. Your canary could just be stressed from you putting your hand in there and holding her. If you continue to hear clicking or see her breathing with the mouth open take her to the avian vet as soon as possible. I had to take one of mine today as he was clicking badly and heavy breathing since last night. He is on medication and hope he recovers. Treating a respiratory problem as soon as possible is very important. Good luck and let me know how she does.
hi, loved the video and your canary is so cute. i’m a little concerned about my own canary as she was fine this morning but i noticed earlier on in the evening that she wasn’t moving much, and that she didn’t resist when i went to pick her up. i took her out the cage so that she could fly around but she wouldn’t move. she was clinging to the cage + my hand. i’ve also noticed recently that she finishes her water within the same day which is unusual for her. she’s opening and closing her mouth and breathing heavily all of a sudden and i’m really concerned. what should i do?
Hi, its best to take her to an avian vet as soon as possible.
Hi, Where can I find this Baytril medecine ?
Hi, I have to buy it at the veterinary clinic. It would depend on where you live. Where I love only vets can dispense it.
Are you saying Baytril?
Which vet you going to?
Hi plzz help me why my canary is eating her nail
Hi there, I have a 20 day old canary that started shaking , do you have any idea what is causing it. Thank you.
Hi, I don't know why he is shaking. He could be cold or has a fever and is sick. Please bring to an avian vet if you are able to if he continues to shake.
No avian vet in my area unfortunately...😞
Hey I was just wondering if you know of a home remedy for air sac mites? It’s going to take me too long to order spray for my finches. I’ve also tried diatomaceous earth and haven’t seen improvement yet. Someone recommended that in another video.
Hi, sorry I don't know any home remedies.
Hi, my cannery since Saturday has been breathing heavy and tail bobbing like yours is at the start of your video on the left of the screen, also when I listen to her mouth there is a popping/clicking sound, she has also stopped singing and is sitting on the bottom of her cage, also her bum is very dirty but her poo is normal.
she is still eating and drinking and going about herself like she normally does.
Took her vet on Monday and they reckon she had pneumonia and has given us meds but I’m not so sure, all the symptoms seem like yours with air sac mites, what you think? Thanks.
Hey mine is doing the same thing do you have any updates?
@@keeb4976 it died 2 days later, still not sure what was wrong, vet said pneumonia but they weren't avian vets and she didn't really seem to know much!
I have a My pet canary bird sunshine, the same color.
And might have this issues sick bird.
Haven't been able to find a vet that takes birds near my area and the bird lot most of it feathers. Still been trying to figure out away.
Keep looking. Call your local vet and they may be able to tell you where to go.
can u please help me I dont know what's wrong with my canary . he is sick means he is not eating well and not flying in the cage sitting on somewhere for long time and not eating and drinking properly and his eyes are not open properly i dont have a vet near but still I gave him drop of medication in his water but I think something is wrong on his feet because he is not standing anymore please just guide me thanks
Sorry, I can't help, he needs an avian vet. The only suggestion I can give is keep him separate from other birds, place paper towel on the bottom of the cage and cover the cage on three sides with the front open to keep him warm. Put him in a quiet area. He probably needs medication prescribed by a vet.
I fed my canary Ivermectin 24 hours ago. How long does it usually take for the effects to kick in? He still puffs up a bit and is usually idle on his perch except in certain moment he'll have a burst of energy and eat/drink as normal and then do the same thing again. If air sac mites isn't the issue, would it be dangerous to give baytril during ivermectin treatment if in any case it's a respiratory infection? Thank you.
Hi, great question, however I am not sure about giving baytril soon after giving ivermectin. Ivermectin should work within 24 hours.
It's best to ask an avian vet about the use of Baytril
Lol I don’t think you’re supposed to feed ivermectin…
@@AlphaMacho I placed the recommended amount in his water and ended up drinking it. Right now he's doing fine.
I have one female canary that suffers from same symptoms.
Can you please write me both medicine brands you used?
Ivermectin
Baytril
@@user-tu1bz2jc7h anyway, it died long time ago
My mommy’s first cannery is a showing the same symptoms but it’s really bad, he’s breathing really hard and u can actually hear him breathing. He’s becoming medication as well bc the vet said it’s not air-sack mites.
Does anyone know anything helpful?
The vet said to give the medication directly and we’re not sure bc we had problems with wrong information of the vets before. This one she went to is the best I know but we’re so afraid and just trying to trust and hope it’ll get better.
Please help us if u know anything
He’s been having problems for a whole while now :(
My canary keeps reaching down to her chest
So I’ve realised my new canary has air sac mites and I recently just started treating it, it sleeps in the same room as my budgie (because they have the same bed time and the room I put them in is the only room that is dark and quiet) but in different cages but I am scared the air sac mites will or have started to look for fresh blood and might go to my budgie. Is this possible for them to know to go to my budgie ? I separate them in the morning in separate rooms and don’t let them out at in the same rooms as I think my budgie could kill him. But is it going to spread to my budgie if I keep to me in the same room or should I separate them even during bedtime.
Air sack mites are carried through the air if your canary coughs or sneezes. Its best to keep them far apart.
Sometimes canaries can have a respiratory illness and its not necessarily air sack mites but its possible that it is so its best to keep them apart and treat the canary for air sack mites.
@@Loveofpets ok thank you so much, do you recommend any air sac mite treatments I can give my budgie that don’t require me to hold him because he isn’t tamed yet as I just got him and I don’t want him to lose the little trust he has in me and hold and scare him.
Does anyone know where you could buy the medicine
You can get it from your vet or a farm supply. I believe the farm supply product had to be diluted appropriately and you have to find out the dose.
My bird is also sick wheezing and feather are gone and also tail bobbing too. Where can I get this med online. It too expensive to take her to vet here. 😪
Not sure, probably a vet has to prescribe it
Mine to
What is that stuff? Baterol? Can I get it online?
Hi. It's Baytril. I can only get it from my vets. In other parts of the world you may be able to get it online. Be cautious giving any medicine to your birds without veterinarian guidance
ivomec or intermectine so many product...but how to use them and when as at ur video can be used both way on bird skin and by water in case by water for how many days to repeat i used for 2 days to make sure the bird drink anaf of corse next day o change the water and i used again for 2 days after 12 days but is it safe to used during breeding season and about new born on first 5 days any more info about it and can heal from the black point in new born birds ??
Hi, I am not sure if it can be used during breeding season. I personally would not use it especially on the females as the medication may be absorbed into the eggs being produced. It's best to ask your avian vet.
Avimec for scaly face mites is about $70 shipped to Canada from Australia & takes between a week to ten daze...
It has ivermectin in it...hurry...
Hi there, just looking for some advice as my canary bird has his eye lid swollen and it’s been like that for a while now like a couple of months ... I took her to the vet who did prescribe some antibiotics SHES been like in and out of the agai an vets room the vet her self has told me that the bird was not bought from a good breeder and is always going to be falling sick however, I gave her her meds . But to no avail she still has her eye lid swollen she is a very active bird tho always UPTO SOMETHING or the other and eats well. Right now I think she is trying to lay an egg as she is in and out of her best always sitting into for a while then goes off to get some scraps of nest material.
Do you have any suggestions advice any home remedies? Please share
Hi, the only thing that I can suggest is get a second opinion from another avian vet. Did the vet give you eye drops? One of my birds needed eye drops because of conjunctivitis and it helped but not sure if it's the same thing. Is your vet an avian vet?
Love of Pets Hi, just saw this. Thanks for replying. Yes The doc is an avian vet. Now it seems like she has an egg in her as SHES been sitting in her nest for hours will take her to the vet tomorrow to confirm
Hello there I feel my canary had some kind of stroke or seizure , he survived but can't walk or eat on its own , I don't want to see him suffer anymore , what should I do ?
Hi, sorry to hear about your canary. Keep him in a small cage with no perches. Place fleece or paper towel in the bottom of the cage to make it soft. Place low dishes of food and water. You can also sprinkle food on the bottom of the cage. Give spray millet and greens as they like that the most.
If he does not get better then a trip to your avian vet is best. The vet can either find out what's wrong or decide if it's time to go peacefully.
Best wishes
@@Loveofpets thank you always.
I’ve had my canary for about 2 or 3 months and we’ve been doing fine, but just today I put my finger up and her mouth opened like a defence... idk what to do, even if I put my finger inside to say hi she runs over and opens her mouth like it’s going to bite me! And I think it was going to ! What do I do?:(
Canary's are more of a hands off bird, they don't like to be touched. Talk to her and offer millet from your hand and see if she will take any.
Love of Pets when will I ever be able to actually put it on my finger tho?:(
Keep trying, it may take a long time. Don't give up. Go slow, offer treats from your hand, talk to him, let him come out on his own. Use words like step up when you have your hand in front of him and praise if he steps up. Use the same words for each behavior such as good boy or yes or good bird.
Love of Pets thanks so much! 💜💜💜
Please help! I have a male canary and he stays all the time fluffy and he doesn't sing now. I am going to the vet but unfortunately the vets are not good. Any advice please?
Going to an avian vets is best. Keep him warm by covering three sides of his cage with a blanket or towel and leave the front open. Give him fresh water, fresh foods and some canary seed along with spray millet. Make sure he is eating and drinking. He may need medication from the vets.
@@Loveofpets Thank you for your help but unfortunately he died yesterday. The vet said that nothing was wrong with him but he gave me a medicine (not sure why). Tomorrow I recognised that there was a big spot on his neck and he died ten minutes later😢😳. Thank you again!
Out of curiosity, how many birds do you have?
I personally have two canaries, two society finches and a pigeon.
I have 23 at the moment. 21 are small birds that I have in my Birdroom and 2 larger birds in my living room
Hi... Could you advise me how to catch my canary? He lives in a parrot cage lol, plenty of room. I want to clip his nails. Any advice how to catch would be gratefully received.
Hi, I usually catch canaries with my bare hand. You may have to chase him around a bit but you will catch him. They don't have a diaphragm so don't put pressure on his chest.
Thankyou x
What happens if the canary is not drinking when they are sick?
You will have to give the medication by mouth.
Why my 🐥canary is eating my carpets? I let him out to fly around but prefer eat my carpets. What can I do?
😊
Your canary is just having fun. They love to pick at fibers and strings or anything soft. Could be looking for Nesting material or just being a bird.
If the carpet is small you can roll it up while your canary is out.
If it's large cover your carpet with paper or a large plastic sheet. If you use plastic be sure to air it outside first as the smell that comes from new plastic can be toxic to your canary.
@@Loveofpets ok.i will cover the carpet with the paper then.many thanks 😊
Hi. Im sorry to keep asking questions but my breeding pair of canaries are well.. Hes mating with her alot. I mean alot! Shes trying to get away from him. Should i separate them ? If i do then he cant feed her when she starts sitting on her nest.
If he is bothering her alot and she does not want to breed then take her away. If he is too aggressive then take her away. She will come off the nest to eat.
@@Loveofpets ok Thankyou. Your so smart. I really appreciate your advice.😊
I have a white canary and her head went bald do you have any advice for that?
Hi, is there other birds in her cage that could of plucked her head?
Base ball cap
My canary has it’s mouth open and seems to breathe heavy in a way anyone knows why?
It could be respiratory, air sack mites or other reasons, take to an avian vet.
which type of medicine can i give to birds that who have air sac mites
Scatt.
how much you pay
Hi, sorry I don't remember the cost
Hi my Kanyri have same problem what you in a video please give Madison name I'm from Pakistan
Is ivermectin to prevent it?
Ivermectin is too kill any parasites or bugs that are on the bird. The bug will bite the bird and die.
It's only used if you know for sure your bird has bugs as it is a poison and is not safe to use as a preventative.
Love of Pets do you mean like external mites, on the actual skin of the bird ? Or like internal bugs ?
It's mostly for external parasites but is used for some internal parasites.
Do you think the ivermectin will have finches with air sac mites?
Yes it can be used on finches.
hi
Hi
How to treat (Loss of balance that affects canaries)
It's best to go to an avian vet. It could be an ear infection, blindness or stroke or a neurological problem or something else.
You should isolate the bird forever , I lost many birds in spite of the treatment , as soon as you see te bird is thin you know that it will die, if it survives you should not put it back with others and treat all your birds , you can buy the mediation on line , if you want to check the bird mites take one perch from each cage one at the time during the day time and knock it on a white paper strongly if you see small dotes that is running then those are the mites it looks like a live dust then you need to treat everyone and change all the cages and then good luck ....
Hi, air sack mites are not the same as red mites that you can find on the ends of the perches.
One a bird is cleared from air sack mites it's fine to put with the others.
Another mite is feather mites that eat the birds feathers.
@@Loveofpets no they both the same red or grey can affect the feather and can go inside the air sacs , and they do not eat the feather but they eat the blood from the skin of the birds or from the air sacs ,...... from skin they make a scaly skin and live inside the skin holes causing itch and a damage of the skin and feather roots then the bird starts scratch and pull more feather and causes more skin infections that can kill the bird , severe skin infection , severe anemia , then heart problems , and some can go inside the air sacs causing blocking and difficulty in breathing and lung damage and infections which will cause a heart problem and death , mites are all the same when they suck t blood they become red ,it is an awful disease !!!! If you rescue the bird in the early stage then it can survive , an some times they have mites and do not show any symptom and when they show symptom ( losing weight , difficulty in breathing, loosing a lot of feather ) then it is too late the medication will kill he mites but can not repair the damages in the lung and air sacs and the heart problems
So she turned out to be a girl! She's a cutie. It's good you don't take chances with your birds. They can go downhill very quickly.
i use ivermectine
I've heard that Ivermectin can cause sterility, so if you plan on breeding I'd research that.
I have never heard of that. My make produced a clutch and he was treated with ivermectin previously. Maybe with continued use it may affect the fertility. Thanks I will ask around and research it.
This reply was from my husband's channel, lol. I forgot I was logged in.
Let's take 70 bucks Canary to a vet to get "diagnosed" for 100 bucks...
Treat them regularly! That's the number ONE rule! All the Canaries and Gouldians have mites.
In some countries medication for mites can only be prescribed by vets. I want to share my knowledge and let others that they can take their Canaries and Finches to the vets, especially if they are not sure what's wrong with them. Just because they are affordable it does not mean that you shouldn't take them to the vets. I have birds that I didn't pay for go to the vets. It's a responsibility thing to do when you own pets.
That's so dumb!!! Air Sac mites are MICROSCOPIC... no way could you see them with shining a torch through the neck LOL.
Why don't you ask any avian vet about it? Why is it dumb? If the bird is infested badly yes you can see them, look it up.
Next time before commenting do some research before you leave a rude comment. I have seen air sack mites with the flash light method.
