Since parrots and diseases of any kind can be a fatal mixture, your bird needs immediate vet care it you notice a change in health. Don't wait. Quarantine your feathered friend and wash your hands both before and after handling it so your bird doesn't pass around an infection. You'll need a variety of diagnostic tests from an experienced vet to identity the problem and get the right treatment. Your vet will help you with the medication and care that your feathered friend needs to recover.
At a sanctuary like Sy's Piece of Heaven, we're familiar with the risks of disease and infection. Many of the parrots we rescue were abused or came from unsafe homes, so they can have serious health issues or illnesses. That's why we invest so much in keeping them well. We always have some bird at a vet's office, receiving the care it desperately needs. Bird sponsors play a huge role in helping us afford the care that each parrot requires to live a healthy life.
If you're concerned about the health and wellness of your own feathered friend, don't wait for an obvious problem to seek help. Always see a Board Certified Avian Specialist for care of your bird.
