Avian Vet Insider 39: New Birds & Infectious Disease Testing

A Lafeber Pet Birds Webinar series hosted by Laura Doering, former editor of Bird Talk magazine and Birds USA magazine with special guest, Dr. Stephanie Lamb, DVM, DABVP (Avian Practice). Dr. Lamb will discuss which tests are the most important when adding a bird to your home or flock. While bringing a new bird into a home is a fun time, bringing home new diseases is not! It’s important to check birds for infectious diseases when they come into a new home so that they don’t inadvertently bring something in. Birds are good at hiding signs of illness and sometimes mask things completely. Checking them out for infectious disease at the start of your new relationship with them can help to calm fears and make sure that you have a new friend who won’t get your existing flock or you sick. Also, testing can let you know if there is something you can do early on to prevent problems. Learn all about the important tests your vet may want to do, including the details of why sample collection and processing methods are so important, in this insider’s view of the daily happenings at your Avian Vet’s clinic.
