Common health issues your bird may experience in their lifetime.

Candida

Candida is a common but rarely fatal disease that often requires antifungal medications.

Avian Pox

Spread through mosquitos, fleas, and mites, there is no cure although it can be managed with supportive care.

External Parasites

Parasites like fleas, ticks, and lice can cause biliary (tick bite fever), anaemia, and other serious conditions.

Roundworms

This parasite is spread easily among infected birds and may require multiple rounds of treatment.

Aspergillosis

This fungal infection may require bloodwork, MRIs, and endoscopies, and treatment may take several months.

Proventricular Dilatation

Also known as Parrot Wasting Syndrome, this is a fatal disease, although quality of life can be maintained with treatment.

Screech was saved from a parasite, and his owner, Lionel, was saved from the R5,000 vet bill.
