avian vet

Hi everyone! As the title suggests, I’m looking for a good avian vet in South Florida. I was taking my birds to Backos Bird Clinic, but as I called today to schedule a grooming, unfortunately I was told the doctor has passed away, and they’re permanently closed. I’ve searched the Association of...

TL;DR - Marvin's doing ok after receiving proper care, but she's got some healing to do. Wednesday June 7 I was in the kitchen and about to get ready to leave for dinner when I heard Jericho fly to a rope perch where Marvin was sitting -- then, Marvin's squawk. Looking up, I briefly saw...

Please give advice on what to do next (currently my bird is not bleeding...

Hi guys! Looking for some insight about what the avian vet told us today. Our almost 10 yo Pionus has had chronic sneezing/respiratory issues since we adopted her 2.5 years ago. The issues come and go, and never seemed to get worse; we didn't have the money to afford full testing, and when we...

Hi all. I wasn't sure where to put this thread.. It's health related but not an emergency? I don't think? I hope here is alright. It can get moved if a moderator thinks there is a better place. I could use all the information and personal experiences on birds with polyfolliculitis? One of my...
