There are two form of PBFD, acute vs chronic, it is like human AIDs, most of the damage is done thru immunosuppression.
Acute = seen in juveniles, around weaning age. These bird are usu lethargic, fluffed and anorexic. Hamematology may show pancytopaneia (decreased RBC, WBC, platelets) and non regenerative anaemia.
Chronic = progressive replacement of normal feathers with dystrophic feathers
In this case, it could still be acute PBFD, but not chronic form
Hope ur baby bird get well soon! |
