    	Well I brought Mic to the vet and he has 'fatty tumors'.  She
    put him on a millet diet with vitamins.  He also had a cold, so 
    he is on meds for that also.  In just 3 days he is doing much better,
    but doesn't like the vitamins very well.  She gave me samples of
    Super Preen and Budgie Mix.  What do you folks use?

|  |     Hi Melanie,
    
    Glad Mic is doing better. I use Topper Seeds, they have the Vitamins
    impregnated in them rather that just on the outside like most other
    fortified seeds. They are more expensive than most seeds. I buy them
    from an Flitesong Enterprises in Merrimack New Hampshire for about
    $9 for 5 lbs. or $4 for 2 lbs(shipping included). If you want to order
    from them leave a message on the machine at 603-595-9429.
    
    I also put Prime vitamins in the water 3-4 times a week. I use these as
    they have something extra, but I forget if it is Amino Acids or
    electrolytes.
    
    Good luck , Doug

    He is still on millet and will have to remain on millet the rest
    of his birdie life [a long one I hope!].  Mic lost 6 grams in 30 days
    on his 'silm fast' diet.  And his fatty tumors have shrunk.  He is very 
    much himself these days.  He is also eating hard boiled eggs and rice 
    along with the super preen - powder.  He hates vegatables.
