Never been to this one before traveling there with friends/fellow bird club members as well as know at least one vendor looking forwards to it. Posting in case others dont know about it!

Bird fairs are vectors for communicable parrot diseases, I would NOT take your parrot, and thoroughly disinfect your clothes, shoes, self and anything you buy there! My local parrot club has discontinued their faire last 2 years from Covid, and now a bird flu in native birds.

Ive been to bird fair and exotic expos many times before just not this one I never take my birds to an all bird fair though I do take them to educational tables at expos and like anything I do pretty much sanitize everything and take a shower when I return home ^^

There is pretty much always traces of bird flu the difference is a high spike, but one should pretty much treat every time you come in contact with wild life or fecal matter you should be sanitazing anyways. So pretty much every time you leave the house and step in grass is a potential contact with wild life or pesticides on your shoes. So rule of thumb always be sanitizing!!
