I had done a lot of research when I first got Walter 37 years ago but a whole lot has changed, especially over the last 5 years or so. I had no idea until Walter started needing regular beak trims and had a health scare which forced me to find an avian vet (back in the day, we couldn't even find a specialist when I worked with a Golden Eagle). Thankfully we have a good avian vet very close to me. So much has changed so then I got inspired to really do some research and then realized that Walter was getting older (due to more time during Covid) to really observe his entire day). Now that I found this forum, I am looking forward to coming into 21st century bird ownership. So much new to learn..... chop..... medications.... treatments.....behavior.... I am excited to learn and for Walter to benefit... (Oh and it helps that I retired from almost 30 years of teaching.
