Hi Guys!!!
I just wanted to know if anyone could please share their knowledge with regards to quarantining a new bird? We might be bringing in a bird from a foster home. She's 28, heavily plucked, and although we're going to take her to the vet, we are still going to quarantine her - even though it's kind of difficult doing that in an apartment. We have 1 bedroom designated as Kiwi & Beako's room, and our potential addition will one day be in that room as well. The other bedroom is our master, and we have a living room kitchen/dining area. In the dining area, the birds have a playstand they get spray showers on, and they hang out with us in the living room sometimes. How strict must I be when keeping a new bird quarantined? and for how long? I definitely know to wash my hands. I'd love your input!
