#pbfd

Bringing home a new #parrot is an exciting experience, adding colors and cheerful chirps to your home. However, amidst this joy, there's a crucial need for caution due to the growing threat of Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease (PBFD). PBFD is no longer confined to Indian Ringneck parrots but is now showing in other species, like Macaws and Amazon parrots as well.

PBFD is a viral disease without a cure, leading to severe beak deformities, feather loss, and often proving fatal. To protect your flock, stringent quarantine measures are necessary. Keeping quarantined birds away from healthy ones to prevent virus transmission through air circulation systems or outdoor environments where wind can carry infectious particles is vital.

Consulting your avian veterinarian is crucial for testing and determining the frequency of PBFD tests. Typically, vets recommend testing 2 to 3 times, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to detect the disease's potential development. False results are possible, making multiple tests necessary.
