Holistic medicine, herbal remedies are being used for pet birds. Pet Bird Magazine, Ezine June 1998 Magazine Article II - The Kitchen Physician V- Herbal Remedies For Parrots THE KITCHEN PHYSICIAN V Herbal Remedies For Parrots by Carolyn Swicegood Herbal medicine was early man's first line of defense against the many ills and accidents that plagued him. Ancient humans learned from the observation of animals, including birds, how to use leaves, earth, mud and water to make soothing applications. Although the methods were crude, several of today's medicines are based upon sources as simple as those of ancient man. Presently, the use of herbs as self-prescribed medication is growing rapidly in the United States. It is an industry with more than $1.5 billion in annual sales. Medicinal herbs are the same natural plant drugs that have been used since antiquity. They remain the only form of medicine for a large majority of the world's population that lacks access to hospitals and pharmacies. Some of the popular herbal remedies for people are: HERBAL TREATMENTS FOR PARROTS Years ago, only the most experimental-minded of birdkeepers used herbs, because there were no guidelines for their use, nor had dosages for them been determined. As we realized that the potential for harm to our birds by herbal remedies was somewhat less than that of pharmaceuticals, we began to establish dosages by starting with minute amounts and increasing gradually to the optimal level. When using the milder herbs, one might use the method of establishing the correct dosage for a human infant of about ten pounds, and use one tenth the amount for a parrot weighing approximately one pound.

LIBRARY PURCHASING AND CARING FOR PET BIRDS BY ROBERT L. LINVILLE, D.V.M. ALL CREATURES VETERINARY HOSPITAL 509 BENICIA ROAD, VALLEJO, CA, 94590 petdoc@flashcom.net Table of Contents Pre Purchase Information Nutrition Cage Information Environment ... Acknowledgements 1. PRE-PURCHASE INFORMATION back Owning a bird as a pet has been popular since the Victorian era, when the parlor was not considered completely decorated unless it had a canary in a very small brass cage residing on a table in a corner. It has been only recently, however, that the health and management of pet birds has become a real concern of the pet bird breeder, owner and Veterinarian. Pet birds are no longer maintained in overly small, ornate cages that do not allow for social contact. Large bright airy cages, along with improved dietary management, have increased the life-span and reproductive efficiency of most of the pet bird species. Birds can be purchased from a variety of sources, such as pet shops, breeders, private dealers, or individuals. If you are buying a bird for the first time it is almost essential that you purchase your bird from someone who is in the bird breeding and/or selling business. These individuals usually have a reputation to protect; ask around and find out who in your area is known to deal honestly and fairly with buyers. Many stores today, especially those specializing in birds, have been operated by bird fanciers who have turned their hobby into a business; they usually know and care about their birds. They will have in stock items required for basic care and maintenance of birds, such as play toys, cages, bird feed and general health supplies. Sales personnel will generally offer you more information than you ever thought necessary to get you started, so leave yourself plenty of time to shop!

10. Vitamin A Deficiency In Parrots And Other Birds Describes the most common preventable avian disease, Vitamin A deficiency or hypovitaminosis A, which particularly affects pet birds that eat only seeds. http://www.multiscope.com/hotspot/vitamina.htm

Dealing With Vitamin A Deficiency in Birds by Hannis L. Stoddard, III, DVM Vitamin A deficiency can be disastrous for your bird but it's preventable The most common preventable avian disease that we see at our practice is hypovitaminosis A, or vitamin A deficiency, with or without accompanying secondary infections. Pet birds that eat only seeds (especially sunflower seeds and peanuts) are most prone to this problem because an all-seed diet is low in vitamin A. When vitamin A deficiency occurs, the cells that line the respiratory, reproductive and digestive tracts undergo structural change, making them unable to secrete mucous. Since mucous acts as a protective blanket to prevent invasion from pathogens (disease- causing agents), vitamin A deficiency allows environmental bacteria and other microorganisms to penetrate the mucous membrane barrier and set up "housekeeping" within these tissues. Symptoms of vitamin A deficiency depend on which organ system is affected (for instance the reproductive, digestive, or respiratory tracts) and which microorganism or combination of microorganisms is invading the patient. The respiratory system is the most often affected. Since the mouth and sinus are also lined by the cells that are compromised, you need only look inside the bird's mouth to see the early signs of this deficiency. Initially, you see small white plaques on the roof of the mouth and/or at the base of the tongue. The plaques ultimately become infected, forming large, obvious abscesses. The abscesses can distort the glottis (opening of the windpipe), causing labored breathing and eventually mechanical suffocation. The abscesses can even grow so large that they block the choana (the slit in the roof of the mouth). When this happens, the bird will exhibit profuse nasal discharge and obvious swelling around the eyes. The pain from these pockets of infection will eventually cause the bird to starve. The microorganisms can also spread throughout the bird's body with disastrous consequences.

A good choice is natural branches of hard, safe woods like manzanita and ribbonwood, which are available from many pet shops.

Feeding a synthetic commercial feed has been touted as the 'best' or 'better' way to feed your bird and as a result has convinced the public at large that it is true. Sadly, our birds are the victims of these pretenses. Bird owners are now beginning to question the true value of these commercial diets, realizing that they are a far cry from resembling anything our birds are accustomed to eating in the wild."

20. Psittacosis (Chlamydia Psittaci Infections) In Pet Birds University of Nebraska Cooperative Extension NF9128. Psittacosis (Chlamydia PsittaciInfections) in pet birds. By Eva Wallner-Pendleton, Extension Veterinarian http://www.ianr.unl.edu/pubs/animaldisease/nf28.htm

University of Nebraska Cooperative Extension NF91-28 Psittacosis (Chlamydia Psittaci Infections) in Pet Birds By Eva Wallner-Pendleton, Extension Veterinarian Companion birds continue to increase in popularity as pets in the United States. Birds most frequently kept belong to the family psittacidae, or the parrot family. Although domestic breeding of parrots is becoming more widespread, a large number of birds are still imported from outside the United States. By law, these birds must enter the country through quarantine stations. There they spend at least 30 days and are tested for disease and fed food containing tetracycline, an antibiotic. The antibiotic treatment is to hopefully eliminate infections with Chlamydia psittaci, the bacterium that causes psittacosis. Psittacosis is a complex disease that affects many species of wild birds, and occasionally, humans that are in close contact with birds. The organism is shed in the feces and respiratory secretions of infected birds. Other birds pick up the organism by inhaling contaminated aerosols. Although infected birds may become extremely ill and die, most birds usually become asymptomatic carriers. They carry the organism in their bodies, shed the organism in their feces, but do not become ill, unless severely stressed. Without specific tests, it can be difficult to differentiate a negative from a positive psittacosis carrier. Psittacosis infections in people are usually mild, resulting in non-specific flu-like symptoms. Occasionally, however, severe bacterial pneumonia may occur which may require hospitalization. If untreated, psittacosis infections in humans may rarely result in death. Fortunately, the disease is very responsive to tetracycline therapy.
