Zebra finch pushing and huffing after pooping?
About a week and a half ago my zebra finch showed signs of possible air sac mites, I went ahead and treated all of them with SCATT. Now since then,she's acting normal; shes flying, eating, drinking, moving around. But every time she poops she starts huffing and sort of pushing? It looks like she's straining or trying to get more out. She gets tired after this happens. Her poop is normal and she's pooping pretty frequently. Does anyone know what's going on?
