It is a great idea to take your bird to a veterinarian for regular check-ups, at least once or twice a year. Remember to always make sure your bird is watched when it is out of the cage and keep it on its proper diet. While birds becoming sick or injured is a possibility, prevention is the always the best care. Early detection and action on your part can save your birds' life. By training yourself and your family on the warning signs of sick birds, you can make positive change before it is too late.
Birds are incredible companion animals with very long life spans.
It is our responsibility to help them make it into old age.
