Avian Medicine

Birds make wonderful, fascinating companions. It is important to see a local veterinarian to keep your avian friend happy and healthy throughout the year.  

Your bird should be seen at least once per year so our veterinarian can assess and monitor their health across a variety of categories, including but not limited to:

  • Check body condition and weight

  • Inspect skin and feathering

  • Examine eyes, ears, nose, and throat

  • Palpate the abdomen

  • Listen to heart, lungs, and air sacs

  • Discuss diet and socialization

  • Test alertness
