vet care

Heya all! Sorry this is my first post here and I will try to make it as cohesive as possible (I'm native Dutch so apologies if I spell things wrong). My bird Lorrito (at least 32+, he was a wild capture so we don't know his age, we suspect he's in his 40's), who lives with my mom together...

I last took my 5 year old, male green cheek conure to the vet in February 2026 and he was given a clean bill of health. A few days ago he got spooked by something and flew around the house frantically which is okay alone but immediately after he landed on a perch back in his room he began acting...

Hello! My cockatiel Tea just got home from the vet. She was egg bound and had the egg removed. I’m worried about her because her follow up papers say to look out for any straining, and she has been straining every 3-5 minutes since she’s been home, and occasionally making small chirps or squeaks...

Hello! I’m pretty new. I apologize that my first thread is a general but my conure’s new behaviour is concerning me. My Sun Conure, Kyle, has developed a new trait of licking the top of his beak and jerking his head erratically. This is his first time doing this and he has been with me for six...

Hello! I’m new here and wanting some help with maybe an overgrowth of my conures bottom beak. We’ve always noticed how his beak doesn’t close all the way like our other conure and now it look as if it’s grown. He is on a very good diet, loves toys, eats drinks regularly, and shows no signs of...

Hi everyone! I'm new here, but I've been reading all your posts for a long time and am so impressed with the wealth of knowledge and care you possess. Firstly, I don't believe my darling bird is ill -- he just had a routine physical and consultation yesterday. My main question is whether I...

I have a sweet GCC named Fuji, he is 4 years old and yesterday I believe he vomited. This happened after he got a few sips of CBD oil by mistake. He is otherwise behaving very normally except for one thing, he seems to sip water between every mouthful of pellets. He doesn't do this with all...

Hello, It is currently 7 pm here and most vets here are closed, My indian ringneck's tongue got bitten by my female lovebird and a small amount of blood came out of the bite wound, It looks as if it has stopped bleeding and has formed a scab, My indian ringneck is eating normally, he is flying...

Hello, this is my first post! I'm kinda breaking down here so please help me! It's about my birdie baby. There aren't many vets that treat birds also here where I live now so he's the only vet who treats birds also so I went to him but he's really vague if you know what I mean? This angel is my...

Hello. My mom has a Plum headed parakeet about a year old. A week ago I notice that his left side of his has a watery eye. I gave him a slower and blow dry him. However after the next few days he has a plug up nose. I haven't taken him or her to the vet since my bird died last time by an...

So I woke up this morning an I noticed that LuLu was sneezing quiet a bit. She would sneeze like every two or three minutes. But it didn't concern me at first because she was really intent on dominating her toy (cereal box) that she was playing with at the time. I took her out to fill her...

So if you saw my other thread about the conure dying right after the cockatiel, you probably know I haven't had a good week. Luckily the vet told us the conure died from a heart defect, as the cockatiel most likely did. So the breeder replaced our conure with another conure named knuckles. He is...

Hi all, You may remember me from a previous post where I'm trying to decide between a Greenwing and Blue and Gold macaw. :) Bird Choice: So far, online the majority of recommendations have been Greenwings, whereas people I've talked to in person have said Blue and Gold! Weird, but anyway... (If...
