Before adopting a rescued bird, comprehensive health screenings are conducted to ensure the bird is ready for a new home. These evaluations typically include a thorough physical examination, tests for common avian diseases, and assessments of any existing injuries or illnesses. Vets also check for signs of psychological stress or behavioral issues, which are prevalent in rescued birds. This process helps prospective owners understand the bird's health needs and any special care requirements, establishing a foundation for successful rehabilitation and long-term well-being.
