Weight: 218 grams, Keel score: 1.5
Grabbed for eye check. Bird is down 20% in weight despite being BAR and flying perch to perch. Enclosure has been NOLO so I think his cage mates are outcompeting him.

SQ Fluids: 15 cc + vit b
Iron dex: 0.02 cc IM

Moved to R35d for now since bird is still BAR and I think will crash in a condo.
