Azure is an older bird and one of the smartest animals I have ever met. Although many people have tried to breed her for many years, she has only produced one baby, Kodiak. Because of Azure's papilloma, all my birds are checked carefully by the vet for papilloma. If you suspect your bird might have papilloma, you can tell by putting vinegar on the cloaca. Papilloma will turn white.
Some birds have more advanced cases than others.
I do hope yours is only in the cloaca and that it is very small. The large ones in the cloaca can be hard to remove as if it circles this area completely you do not want scar tissue to build up so that the area cannot expand for them to go potty or in the case of a female, pass an egg. Checking for papilloma should be included in any bird's yearly physical exam. All rights reserved.
