Answer

Hello. What you need is called a Probiotic. There are commercial ones on the market Click here: Purina Veterinary Diets but if you can get him to eat some active enzyme yogurt and/or some real cheese, it can help to replace that good gut flora. Another good source is the product by Dannon, I believe it is called DannActive. (I use that one a lot with my parrots.) But, whether you can find a flavor of it that he will like may be a bit iffy. I hope he is soon on the road to complete recovery. Let us know if you need anything else. Patricia
