Hi All! My Blue Head has developed what appears to be some form of a growth under his tongue. This is causing him what I believe, to eat less. His keel is protruding more than normal. The vet just weighed him at 260 grams. Blood test shows elevated white blood cell count and before the...

Hi! I'm back with a new questions about my rescue orange winged amazon Bonnie. Turns out poetaster we got Bonnie from just got slapped with assault and kidnapping charges. They got into a disagreement about reptile care and locked the door and beat up a few customers. Whats more, when we called...

My wife let me know our parrot flew into the window pretty hard this afternoon. He was stunned at first, but let her pick him up. He wouldn't leave her shoulder for about 2 hours, had trouble swallowing water initially, and his footing was off (he seemed very clumsy and off-balance). He was very...

Hello all! I've just made an appointment to take my 10 year old Green Cheek Conure, Burgundy, to the vet for a grooming. But I'm pretty nervous because the last time we took him to a groomer, he had a bad anxiety attack. His beak was open in a way that I can only describe as panting and he...

Hello! My GCC (not sexed, but we think she's F), regurgitated twice: once last night and once this morning. I panicked because she hasn't done this since she was a baby. I did take her to the vet. Normal weight, normal gram stain. Normal behavior. The vet said to take this seriously, that it...

When Samantha gets home on Thursday we will have to turn around and take her to her first vet visit for an initial check up so that we can establish a relationship with the exotic doc. What is and isn't necessary for this visit? I know that vets, like many other places, are interested in...

So I haven't even had my little baby cockatiel, Sunshine, for a week yet and she's sick. I have been worried, the breeder said she was ten weeks but I thought she was younger because of her sitting so low, difficulty perching and she doesn't peck. She always seemed hungry, crying, even after a...

So As most have you known i got a pet cockatiel two days ago... well long story short i had him out and was walking around my house doing stuff and he just decided he wanted to fly (i was putting dishes away and i think it might have spooked him when i bent down and put a pan away) and he flew...

I took Morgan to the vet because he was having some diarrhea. They did a bunch of exams and drew blood. He hated being handled and SCREECHED AND CRIED when they held him in the towel. He was put on two medications for the diarrhea and they have to be given orally. When we got home he has been...

I know it is important to take the bird to the vet very shortly after taking it home, but what is the appropriate timing? I don't want to scare the poor thing to death. The place where I am looking to acquire my bird from has a health guarantee so long as the bird is seen within 5 days. Advice...

We are new owners of a 3 week old Alexandrine Parakeet called kiffy. He/She is 6 weeks old this week and seems to be doing fine. Just one question, dose anyone think its worth going to a vet just to get the bird checked over? Cheers and any advice about feeding from soft food to seed would be...

Hi everyone - I lost my GCC, Abbie, two days ago at the ER Vet. I took her in for what appeared to be a seizure. We arrived after her episode had ended and she was in perfect form (dancing, talking, showing off, etc) so we assumed that we just needed to do a few simple tests to make sure...
